Question

The perimeter of a triangle is 24 cm.If it’s area is 24cm2 and it’s one of the three sides is 10 cm,find the sides of remaining

Answer 1

Answer:

The other sides are 6cm and 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other 2 sides be x and y.

Using herons formula, we have an equation

24=sqrt(12*2*(12-x)*(12-y))

Since the perimeter is given, we have x+y=24-10=14. Solving it we have x=6,8 and y=8,6.
