The sides of a triangle are 35 cm, 54 cm and 61 cm, respectively. The length of its longest altitude -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

s= 2 a+b+c​     = 2 35+54+61​     =75 Area, A= s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)​     = 75(75−35)(75−54)(75−61)​     =420 5​     cm 2    Now, Area of the triangle is also given as A= 2 1​     ×a×h Where, h is the longest altitude. Therefore,   2 1​     ×a×h=420 5​      Hence, h=24 5​      cm
