Q:

The altitude drawn to the base of an isosceles triangle is 8 cm and the perimeter is 32 cm. Find the area of the triangle.

A) 24 B) 48
C) 60 D) 72
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 48

Explanation:

Let ABC be the isosceles triangle and AD be the altitude 

Let AB = AC = x. Then, BC = (32 - 2x). 

Since, in an isosceles triangle, the altitude bisects the base,
so BD = DC = (16 - x).
In triangle ADC,AC2=AD2+DC2 

⇒x2=82+16-x2⇒x=10 

BC = (32- 2x) = (32 - 20) cm = 12 cm. 

Hence, required area =  12*BC*AD=12*12*8=48cm2

x^2+y^2=3341......(1)

 

x^2-y^2=891......(2)

 

Adding (i) and (ii), we get : 2x^2=4232 or x^2= 2116 or x =46

 

Subtracting (ii) from (i), we get : 2y^2= 2450 or y^2 = 1225 or y = 35

 

So, the numbers are 35 and 46
