The two adjacent sides a cyclic quadrilateral are 2 and 5 and the angle between them is 60°. If the area of the quadrilateral is $4\sqrt{3}$, then the perimeter of the quadrilateral is : |
12 12.5 13 13.2 |
12 |
$\cos 60°=\frac{4+25-c^2}{2.2.5}⇒\frac{1}{2}=\frac{29-c^2}{20}$ $⇒10=29-c^2⇒c^2=19⇒c=\sqrt{19}$ Now, $\cos 120°=\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2ab}⇒-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{a^2+b^2-19}{2ab}$ $⇒a^2+b^2-19=-ab⇒a^2+b^2+ab=19$ Area of quadrilateral = $\frac{1}{2}×2×5×\sin 60°+\frac{1}{2}ab\sin 120°=4\sqrt{3}$ $⇒\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{ab\sqrt{3}}{4}=4\sqrt{3}⇒\frac{ab}{4}=4-\frac{5}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$ ⇒ ab = 6 $∴ a^2 + b^2 = 13$ ∴ a = 2, b = 3 Perimeter of quadrilateral = 2 + 5 + 2 + 3 = 12 |
