Area Problems
The sides of a triangle area in the ratio of 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 and its perimeter is 94 cm. Find the length of the smallest side of the triangle .
Given ratio = 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 = 20 : 15 : 12Let length of the sides be 20k, 15k and 12k.Then, according to the question,20k + 15k + 12k = 94? 47k = 94? k = 94/47 = 2Smallest side = 12k = 12 x 2 = 24 cm
Let Length = 5y meters and breadth = 3y meters.Then, perimeter = 2 x (5y + 3y ) m = 16y meters ...(i)But perimeter = Total Cost / Rate = 3000 / 7.50 m = 400 m ...(ii)from eqs. (i) and (ii)16y = 400? y = 25? Length - Breadth = (5 x 25 - 3 x 25 ) m = 2 x 25 m = 50 m
Distance travelled in 1 revolution = circumference of the wheel = ?d= ( 22/7 ) x 63= 198 cmSo the distance travelled in 100 revolutions = 100 x distance travelled in 1 revolution = 100 x 198 cm= 19800 cm = 198 m
