1.	The base and the height of a triangle are in the ratio 4 : 5. If the area of the triangle is 40 m2; find its base and height. Let base be 4x m and height be 5x m. ∴12×4x×5x=40.
Answer» The base and the height of a triangle are in the ratio 4 : 5. If the area of the triangle is 40 $m^{2}$ ; find its base and height. Let base be 4x m and height be 5x m. $∴ \frac{1}{2} \times 4 x \times 5 x = 40.$

Answer»

The base and the height of a triangle are in the ratio 4 : 5. If the area of the triangle is 40 $m^{2}$ ; find its base and height.

Let base be 4x m and height be 5x m.

$∴ \frac{1}{2} \times 4 x \times 5 x = 40.$
