∴ √s1 (s1 – a) (s1 – b) (s2 – c) + √s2 (s2 – a) (s2 – b) (s3 – c)

= √21 (21 – 13) (21 – 14) (21 – 15) + √30 (30 – 25) (30 – 15) (30 – 20)

= √21 × 8 × 7 × 6 + √30 × 5 × 15 × 10

= √7 × 3 × 2 × 7 × 2 × 3 + √2 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 5

= (2 × 3 × 7) + (2 × 3 × 5 × 5)

Areas of Rectilinear Figures Exercise 15.2 Solution

Question no – (1)

Solution :

(a) a = 8, b = 11, c = 13, s = 8 + 11 + 13/2 = 32/2 = 16

Area = √s (s – a) (s – b) (s – c)

= √16 (16 – 8) (16 – 11) (16 – 13)

= √16 × 8 × 5 × 3

= 8 √30 = 8 × 5.477

= 43.81 m2

(b) a = 60 cm, b = 56cm, c = 52cm,

s = 60 + 56 + 52/2 = 84 cm.

Area = √84 (84 – 60) (84 – 56) (84 – 52)

= √84 × 24 × 28 × 32

= √2 × 2 × 3 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7

= 1348 cm2.

(c) a = 17 m, b = 25 m, c = 26 m,

s = 17 + 25 + 26/2 = 34 cm.

area = √s (s – a) (s – b) (s – c)

= √34 (34 – 17) (34 – 25) (34 – 26)

= √34 × 17 × 9 × 8

= √2 × 17 × 17 × 17 × 3 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 2 × 2 × 3 × 17

= 204 m2.

(d) a = 112 cm, b = 78 cm, c = 50 cm,

s = 112 + 78 + 50/2 = 120 cm.

Area = √120 (120 – 112) (120 – 78) (120 – 50)

= √120 × 8 × 42 × 70

= √2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 7

= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

= 1680 cm2.

(e) a = 10 m, b = 12 m, c = 18 m,

s = 10 + 12 + 18/2 = 20 m.

Area = √20 (20 – 10) (20 – 12) (20 – 18)

= √20 × 10 × 8 × 2

= √2 × 2 × 5 × 2 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 8 × 5 √2

= 40 × 1414

= 56.56 m2.

Question no – (2)

Solution : 

Required figure,

Let  the sides e x cm.

x + X + 48 = 108

Or, 2x = 108 – 48 = 60

Or, 60/2 = 30 cm.

Now, AO = √(30)2 – (24)2

= √900 – 576

= √324 = 18 cm.

Area of △ABC = 1/2 × 18 × 48

= 9 × 48

= 432 cm2.

Question no – (4)

Solution : 

a = 25, b = 39, c = 56, s = 25 + 39 + 56/2 = 60 cm.

Area = √60 (60 – 25) (60 – 39) (60 – 56)

= √60 × 35 × 21 × 4

= √2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 7 × 3 × 7 × 2 × 2

= 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

= 420 cm2.

Again, area at the triangle

= 1/2 × 56 × h

= 420

Or, h = 420/28 = 15 cm.

Question no – (5)

Solution :

Let the sides be 9x, 40x, 41x meters,

9x + 40x + 41x = 180

Or, The sides are 9 × 2 = 18 m,

40 × 2 = 80 m,

41 × 2 = 82 m.

Question no – (6)

Solution : 

a = 30m, b= 72m, c = 78m, s = 30 + 72 + 78/2 = 90m.

Area = √90 (90 – 30) (90 – 72) (90 – 78)

= √90 × 60 × 18 × 12

= √2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 3

= 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 1080 m2.

Now, total expense = 1080 × 10 = 10800 paise

= 10800/100

= 108 rupees.

Question no – (7)

Solution :

Let the sides be 13x, 14x, 15x m.

13x + 14x + 15x = 84

Or, 42x = 84

Or, x = 84/42 = 2m.

Sides are 13 × 2 = 26m, 14 × 2 = 28m, 15 × 2 = 30m.

Area = √42 (42 – 26) (42 – 28) (42 – 30)

= √42 × 16 × 14 × 12

= √2 × 3 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 7 × 2 × 2 × 3

= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7

= 380 m2.

Question no – (8)

Solution :

a = 120m, b = 150m, c = 200m,

s = 120 + 150 + 200/2 = 235m.

Area = √235 (235 – 120) (235 – 150) (235 – 200)

= √235 × 115 × 85 × 35

= √5 × 47 × 5 × 23 × 5 × 17 × 5 × 7

= 5 × 5 × √47 × 23 × 17 × 7

= 25 × √47 × 23 × 17 × 7 m2.

Expense = 25 × √47 × 23 × 17 × 7 × 25/100 rupees

= 422416.25 rupees.

Question no – (9)

Solution :

Altitude = √3/2 × 32 = 16 √3 cm.

Question no – (12)

Solution :

Let the length at each side be x cm.

√3/4 × x2 = 81√3

= 9 × 2

= 18 cm.

Question no – (13)

Solution :  

Let the length of each side be x cm.

√3/4 x2 = 36 √3

Or, x2 = 36 × 4

Or, x = √36 × 4

Or, x = 6 × 2 = 12 cm

Perimeter,

= 12 × 3

= 36 cm.
