Question

Find the area of the triangle whose sides are 30 cm, 24 cm and 18 cm. Also, find the length of the altitude corresponding to the smallest side of the triangle.

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

Let a = 30 cm, b = 24 cm, c = 18 cm. Then, s = = 36 cm. ⇒ (s - a) = (36 - 30) cm = 6 cm. ⇒ (s - b) = (36 - 24) cm = 12 cm. ⇒ (s - c) = (36 - 18) cm = 18 cm. We know that, Length of the smallest side = 18 cm. Let the length of altitude be x cm. Then, Hence, area of triangle = 216 cm2 and altitude = 24 cm.
