The sides of a triangular field are in the ratio of 5:6: 7. If its perimeter is 3600 m. find the area of that land

Area = 587877.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of sides of the triangle be represented by a, b and c respectively.

a = x 3600

  = 1000

b = x 3600

  = 1200

c = x 3600

  = 1400

The length of the sides of the triangle are: 1000 m , 1200 m, 1400 m.

Perimeter = a + b + c

               = 1000 + 1200 + 1400

               = 3600

The area of the land can be determined by;

Area of a triangle =  

where: s is the semi-perimeter of the triangle and a, b and c are the length of sides respectively.

s =

 =

s = 1800

Area =

        =

        =

        = 587877.54

Area = 587877.54

The area of the triangle is 587877.54 .
