Question

an umbrella is made by stitching 10 triangular pieces of cloth of two different colours where each pieces measuring 48cm,48cm,and 30cm. find cost of required to make umbrella at rate of 5paisa per square cm

Answer 1

Explanation:

first we need to calculate the area of isosceles triangle having sides 48cm, 48cm and 30cm

a = 48

b= 30

Area of isosceles triangle using only sides = ½[√(a^2 − b^2 /4) × b]

= 1/2*30√( 48² - 1/4×30²)

=1/2*30√ (2304 -225)

=684sq cm

cost required to make umbrella= 10*684*5

= 34200
