a right angle triangle has the perimeter of 96cm. the length of its sides are in the ratio of 6:8:10. work out the area of the triangle

384 centimeters squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

96/(6+8+10)

96/24 = 4

6×4 : 8×4 : 10×4

24:32:40

The length of its sides are in the ratio of 24:32:40

The longest side is the hypotenuse which is 40.

The area is base × height × 1/2 of a triangle.

32 × 24 × 1/2

768 × 1/2

=384

The area of the triangle is 384 cm squared.

Area = 384 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 96 cm

Ratio = 6:8:10

So,

6x+8x+10x = 96

=> 24x = 96

Dividing both sides by 24

=> x = 4

So, The sides are

=> 24 cm

=> 32 cm

=> 40 cm

Now the area using Heron's Formula

Area =

Where s is the semi-perimeter = 48 cm, a , b and c are the sides

Area =

Area =

Area =

Area = 384 cm²

24

step-by-step explanation:

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
