Question 2.
Solution:
Let a = 42 cm, b = 34 cm and c = 20 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 2

(ii)Let base = 42 cm and corresponding height = h cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 3
Hence, the height corresponding to the longest side = 16 cm

Question 3.
Solution:
Let a = 18 cm, b = 24 cm, c = 30 cm
Then,2s = (18 + 24 + 30) cm = 72 cm
s = 36 cm
(s a) = 18cm, (s b) = 12 cm and (s c) = 6 cm

(ii)Let base = 18 cm and altitude = x cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 5
Hence, altitude corresponding to the smallest side = 24 cm

Question 4.
Solution:
On dividing 150 m in the ratio 5 : 12 : 13, we get

Question 5.
Solution:
On dividing 540 m in ratio 25 : 17 : 12, we get
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 7
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 8

Question 6.
Solution:
Let the length of one side be x cm
Then the length of other side = {40 (17 + x)} cm = (23 – x) cm
Hypotenuse = 17 cm
Applying Pythagoras theorem, we get
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 9

Question 7.
Solution:
Let the sides containing the right – angle be x cm and (x – 7) cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 10
∴ perimeter of triangle (15 + 8 + 17) cm = 40 cm

Question 8.
Solution:
Let the sides containing the right angle be x and (x 2) cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 11
Therefore, perimeter of the triangle = 8 + 6 + 10 = 24 cm

Question 9.
Solution:
Side of an equilateral triangle = a = 10 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 12

Question 10.
Solution:
Let each side of the equilateral triangle be a cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 13

Question 11.
Solution:
Let each side of the equilateral triangle be a cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 14
Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3a = (3 12) cm = 36 cm

Question 12.
Solution:
Let each side of the equilateral triangle be a cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 15

Question 13.
Solution:
Base of right angled triangle = 48 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 16

Question 14.
Solution:
Let the hypotenuse of right – angle triangle = 6.5 m
Base = 6 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 17
Hence, perpendicular = 2.5 cm and area of the triangle =7.5 cm2

Question 15.
Solution:
The circumcentre of a right – triangle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 18
Hypotenuse = 2 × (radius of circumcircle)
= (2 × 8) cm = 16 cm
Base = 16 cm, height = 6 cm
Area of right angled triangle=
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 19
Hence, area of the triangle= 48 cm2

Question 16.
Solution:
Let each equal side be a cm in length.
Then,
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 20
Hence, hypotenuse = 28.28 cm and perimeter = 68.28 cm

Question 17.
Solution:
Let each equal side be a cm and base = 80 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 21
perimeter of triangle = (2a + b) cm
= (2 41 + 80) cm
= (82 + 80) cm = 162 cm
Hence, perimeter of the triangle = 162 cm

Question 18.
Solution:
Let the height be h cm, then a= (h + 2) cm and b = 12 cm
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 22
Hence, area of the triangle = 48 cm2.

Question 19.
Solution:
Let ∆ABC is a isosceles triangle. Let AC, BC be the equal sides
Then AC = BC = 10cm. Let AB be the base of ∆ABC right angle at C.
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 23
Hence, area = 50 cm2 and perimeter = 34.14 cm

Question 20.
Solution:
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 24
Area of shaded region = Area of ABC – Area of DBC
First we find area of ABC
RS Aggarwal Solutions Class 10 Chapter 17 Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Ex 17a 25
Area of shaded region = Area of ∆ABC – Area of ∆DBC
= (43.30 – 24) cm2 = 19. 30 cm2
Area of shaded region = 19.3 cm2
