Q:

The base of a triangular field is three times its altitude. If the cost of cultivating the field at Rs. 24.68 per hectare be Rs. 333.18, find its base and height.

A) B=900;H=300	B) B=300;H=900
C) B=600;H=700	D) B=500;H=900

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) B=900;H=300

Explanation:

Area of the field = Total cost/rate = (333.18/25.6) = 13.5 hectares
$13.5 * 10000 m^{2} = 135000 m^{2}$
Let altitude = x metres and base = 3x metres.
Then, $\frac{1}{2} * 3 x * x = 135000 \Rightarrow x^{2} = 90000 \Rightarrow x = 300$

Base = 900 m and Altitude = 300 m.
