This is an important ques from the Book ML Aggarwal class 10th,, chapter – 7, ratio and proportion.

In these both questions we have to. Distribute the total sum according to given fixed ratio.

In first question we have to distribute perimeter of triangle in the given ratio and in second ques we have to distribute total angle sum in given ratio

Question 16

  1. Solution:

    (i) It is given that

    Perimeter of triangle = 30 cm

    Ratio among sides = 7: 5: 3

    Here the sum of ratios = 7 + 5 + 3 = 15

    We know that

    Length of first side = 30 × 7/15 = 14 cm

    Length of second side = 30 × 5/15 = 10 cm

    Length of third side = 30 × 3/15 = 6 cm

    Therefore, the sides are 14 cm, 10 cm and 6 cm.

    (ii) We know that

    Sum of all the angles of a triangle = 1800

    Here the ratio among angles = 2: 3: 4

    Sum of ratios = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

    So we get

    First angle = 180 × 2/9 = 400

    Second angle = 180 × 3/9 = 600

    Third angle = 180 × 4/9 = 800

    Hence, the angles are 400, 600 and 800.
