Answer the 9 (ii) question. { NO LINKS }.{ NO ANSWERS FROM GOOGLE }.
Q.9. (ii) The sides of a triangular plot are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 7 and its perimeter is 300 m. Find its area. Take  3 = 1.732.

Let ABC be the triangular plot.Let AB = c = 3x m; BC = a = 5x m; CA = b = 7x mNow, perimeter of ABC = 300 ma + b + c = 3005x + 7x + 3x = 30015x = 300x = 20So, a = 5×20 = 100 m; b = 7×20 = 140 m; c = 3×20 = 60 mNow, semi-perimeter, s = 3002 = 150 mNow, area = ss-as-bs-c=150150-100150-140150-60=150×50×10×90=3×5×5×3×3×10×10×10×10=3×5×10×103=15003=1500×1.732=25.98 m2
