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
