The area of a triangle is one-third of the area of a parallelogram whose base is 24 cm.
The area of a triangle is one-third of the area of a parallelogram whose base is 24 cm. Find the height of the parallelogram if the sides of the triangle are 22 cm, 18 cm, and 24 cm long, respectively.Use $ (\sqrt{35} = 5.9 $
एक त्रिभुज का क्षेत्रफल एक ऐसे समांतर चतुर्भुज के क्षेत्रफल का एक-तिहाई है जिसका आधार 24 cm है। समांतर चतुर्भुज की ऊँचाई ज्ञात कीजिए। यदि त्रिभुज की भुजाएँ क्रमशः 22 cm, 18 cm और 24 cm हैं। $ (\sqrt{35} = 5.9 $ का प्रयोग करें)
Detailed Solution & Logic
23.6 cm
Given:
Sides of triangle = 22 cm, 18 cm, 24 cm
Semi-perimeter
$s = \frac{22 + 18 + 24}{2} = 32$
Area of triangle (Heron’s formula)
$A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$
$= \sqrt{32(32-22)(32-18)(32-24)}$
$= \sqrt{32 \times 10 \times 14 \times 8}$
$= \sqrt{256 \times 140}$
$= 16\sqrt{140}$
$= 16\sqrt{4 \times 35}$
$= 32\sqrt{35}$
Using $\sqrt{35} = 5.9$
Area of triangle
$= 32 \times 5.9 = 188.8 \text{ cm}^2$
Given:
Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{3}$ × Area of parallelogram
Area of parallelogram
$= 3 \times 188.8 = 566.4 \text{ cm}^2$
Area of parallelogram
$= \text{base} \times \text{height}$
$566.4 = 24 \times h$
$h = \frac{566.4}{24} = 23.6$
Height of the parallelogram = 23.6 cm
