Answer:
Let the sides of the triangle be 5x m, 12x m and 13x m.
We know:
Perimeter = Sum of all sides
or, 150 = 5x + 12x + 13x
or, 30x = 150
or, x = 5
Thus, we obtain the sides of the triangle.

Question 7:
The perimeter of a triangular field is 540 m and its sides are in the ratio 25 : 17 : 12. Find the area of the triangle. Also, find the cost of ploughing the field at Rs 18.80 per 10 m2.
Answer:
Let the sides of the triangle be 25x m, 17x m and 12x m.

or, 8x = 32
or, x = 4
∴ Equal sides of the triangle = 3x = 3(4) = 12 cm
Base of the triangle = 2x = 2(4) = 8 cm

Question 10:
Given a ∆ABC in which
I. ∠A, ∠B and ∠C are in the ratio 3 : 2 : 1.
II. AB, AC and BC are in the ratio and .
Is ∆ABC a right triangle?
The question give above has two Statements I and II. Answer the question by using instructions given below:
(a) If the question can be answered by one of the given statements only and not by the other.
(b) If the question can be answered by using either statement along.
(c) If the question can be answered by using both the statements but cannot be answered by using either statement.
(d) If the question cannot be answered even by using both the statements together.
Answer:
(b)
Let A, B and C be 3x, 2x and x, respectively.
Hence, it is a right triangle at A.
Let the sides of the triangle be
Also,
Now,
So, it can be answered using either statement.
