A triangular park has sides 120 m, 80 m and 50 m. A gardener has to put a fence all around it and also plant grass inside. How much area does he need to plant? Find the cost of fencing it with barbed wire at the rate of Rs. 20 per metre, leaving a space of 3 m wide for a gate on one side.

using Henon's(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)=?125×5×45×75=(25×15)?15=375?15sq.m Cost of fence without gate=(250-3)×20=247×20=RS.4940

Mathematics Tutor giving in depth knowledge of even simple concepts

Perimeter of the garden=120+80+50 =250m As space of 3 m wide for a gate is left on one side, so the length of wire required=(250-3)=247m. Cost of fencing=247X20=Rs 4940. semiperimeter(s)=perimeter/2 =250/2=>125m Area of triangle is given by A= sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))=sqrt(125x5x45x75)=(25x15sqrt(15))...

Perimeter = 120+80+50 = 250 m Leaving 3 m for the gate, the length to be fenced = 247 m Cost of fencing = 247 x 20 = Rs 4940 Area of the park = 1/2 x base x Altitude = 0.5 x 80 x 50 = 2000 sq m

Area of a triangle =s (s-a)(s-b)(s-c); where s=(120+80+50)÷2=125 Area to plant grass= 125×5×45×75=21,09,375sq.m. Length of barbed wire=perimeter of the field-space for door =120+80+50-3=247m Cost of fencing=247×20= Rs.4940

Length of garden (perimeter)=120+80+50=250 Now s=(a+b+c)/2=125 Area=?s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)=?125×5×45×75=(25×15)?15=375?15sq.mt Cost of fence without gate=(250-3)×20=247×20=RS.4940/-

Solve : 141x + 103y = 217; 103x + 141y = 27
First add both equations, we'll get 244x+244y=244, Now, Divide this equation by 244, it gives x+y=1.....(a) Again, subtract equation 2 from 1, it gives 38x-38y=190, Now, divide this equation by 38,comes x-y=5.....(b) Now...

The sides of a triangular plot are in the ratio of 6 : 7 : 8 and its perimeter is 420 m. Find its area.
Let,the sides are 6x, 7x, 8x. perimeter =420m 6x+7x+8x=420 21x=420 x=20. So the sides are 120,140,160 respectively. now area =root (s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) =root(210*90*70*50) =8133m^2

What is the value of Sin360+Cos360?

Sin(360)= sin(0)=0 Cos(360)=cos(0)=1 Formula: Sin((360*x)+y)=sin(y) Cos((360*x)+y)=cos(y) Where x is any integer and y is any real number. Sin(360) +cos (360) =1
