The base of triangle is equal to the perimeter of a square whose diagonal is 9$\sqrt{2}$ cm, and its height is equal to the side of a square whose area is 144$cm^{2}$. The area of the triangle (in $cm^{2}$) is: |
216 72 144 288 |
216 |
We know that, Diagonal of square = Side\(\sqrt {2}\) Area of triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × height Perimeter of square = 4 × side Side \(\sqrt {2}\)= 9\(\sqrt {2}\) Side = 9 Perimeter = 4 × 9 = 36 24 = base of triangle according to question Now height is equal to side of square whose area is 144cm2 Height2 = 144 Height = 12 Height of the triangle is equal to side of square = Area of triangle =\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 12× 36 = 216 |
