Detailed Solution

The sides of the triangle are in the ratio 5: 12 :13 and its perimeter is 150 cm. The area of the triangle is 750 c m 2  .
Given the sides of the triangle are in the ratio 5: 12 :13 and its perimeter is 150 cm.
Let the sides equal to 5k, 12k, 13k.
The perimeter of triangle = sum of all sides
 150 =5k+12k+13k 150=30k k=5    The sides are 5 ×5, 12×5, 13×5  .
The sides are 25, 60 and 65.
Now the value of s is,
s= a+b+c 2 s= 25+60+65 2 s= 150 2 s=75  
Now, area of triangle using Heron’s formula is,
A= s sa sb sc A= 75 7525 7560 7565 A= 562500 A=750c m 2   The area of triangle is 750 c m 2  .
