Area Question 1:
What is the area of the triangle whose vertices are (3, 0), (0, 4) and (3, 4) ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 1 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Area of the triangle:
Area of the triangle with vertices \(\left(x_1, y_1\right), \left(x_2, y_2\right)\mbox{ and }\left(x_3, y_3\right)\) is given by:
\(|A| = \begin{vmatrix} x_1 & y_1 & 1\\ x_2 & y_2 & 1\\ x_3 & y_3 & 1\\ \end{vmatrix}\)
Calculation:
It is given that the triangle has vertices as \((3, 0), (0,4)\mbox{ and }(3, 4)\).
Thus, area of the triangle is given by:
\(\begin{align*} A &= \dfrac{1}{2}\begin{vmatrix} 3 & 0 & 1\\ 0 & 4 & 1\\ 3 & 4 & 1 \end{vmatrix}\\ &= \dfrac{1}{2}\left(3(4 - 4) -0(0 -3) + 1(0 - 12)\right)\\ &= -6 \end{align*}\)
Thus the area of the triangle is 6 square units.
Area Question 2:
The area of a triangle is 5 and two of its vertices are A(2, 1), B(3, -2). Then, the third vertex, in 1st quadrant which lies on the line y = x + 3 is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 2 Detailed Solution
Concept:
The area of a triangle with vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3) is \({1 \over 2} [x_1(y_2 - y_3) +x_2 (y_3 -y_1) + x_3 (y_1 -y_2)]\)
Calculation:
The third vertex lies on the line y = x + 3
Let the third vertex be (k, k + 3)
⇒ The area of a triangle with vertices (2, 1), (3, -2), (k, k + 3) is
\({1 \over 2} [2(-2 - (k+3)) +3 (k+3 -1) + k (1 -(-2))]\)
⇒ \({1 \over 2} [2(-5 - k) +3 (k+2 ) + k (3))] = 5\)
⇒ \([-10 - 2k +3 k+6 + 3k] = 5\times 2\)
⇒ \([-4 +4 k] = 10\)
⇒ k = 14/4 = 7/2
⇒ The third vertex = (k, k + 3) = \(\left(\frac{7}{2}, \frac{13}{2}\right)\)
∴ The correct answer is option (1).
Area Question 3:
Find the area of the triangle whose vertices are A (1, 1), B (- 1, - 1) and C (- √3, √3) ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 3 Detailed Solution
CONCEPT:
Let A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) be the vertices of a Δ ABC, then area of Δ ABC = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
CALCULATION:
Given: A (1, 1), B (- 1, - 1) and C (- √3, √3) are the vertices of the triangle ABC
Let x1 = 1, y1 = 1, x2 = - 1, y2 = - 1, x3 = - √3 and y3 = √3
As we know that, if A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are the vertices of a Δ ABC then area of Δ ABC = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
\(⇒ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{1}}&{{1}}&1\\ {{-1}}&{{- 1}}&1\\ {{-√3}}&{{√3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
⇒ (1/2) |1 (-1 - √3) - 1 (-1 + √3) + 1 (- √3 - √3) |
⇒ (1/2) | (-1 - √3 + 1 - √3 - √3 - √3) |
⇒ (1/2) |-4 √3 |
⇒ A = 2√3
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Area Question 4:
Find the area of the triangle whose vertices are A (4, 4), B(3, - 16) and C(3, - 2) ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 4 Detailed Solution
CONCEPT:
Let A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) be the vertices of a Δ ABC, then area of Δ ABC = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
CALCULATION:
Given: A (4,4), B(3,- 16) and C(3,-2) are the vertices of the triangle ABC
Let x1 = 4, y1 = 4, x2 = 3, y2 = - 16, x3 = 3 and y3 = - 2
As we know that, if A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are the vertices of a Δ ABC then area of Δ ABC = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
\(⇒ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{4}}&{{4}}&1\\ {{3}}&{{-16}}&1\\ {{3}}&{{-2}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
⇒ A = 7 sq units
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
Area Question 5:
If the area of an equilateral triangle inscribed in the circle x2 + y2 + 10x + 12y + c = 0 is \(27\sqrt{3}\) sq. units, then c is equal to
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 5 Detailed Solution
Concept:
- Area of an equilateral triangle = \(√3 a^2 \over 4\)
where, a is the side of the triangle.
- If equation of circle is x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, then radius of circle, R = \(√{g^2 + f^2 - c}\)
- For an isosceles triangle, two sides equal to l and one a,
a = 2l sin \(θ \over 2\), where θ is th angle opposite to a.
Calculation:
Area of the equilateral triangle given = \(27√{3}\) sq. units
Let the side of the triangle be a,
⇒ \(√3 a^2 \over 4\)= \(27√{3}\)
⇒ a2 = 27 × 4
⇒ a = 6√3
Now the side 'a' and two radius joining centre of circle and vertices of triangle forms an isosceles triangle.
⇒ a = 2r sin \(120 \over 2\)
⇒ \(6√3 = 2r {√3 \over2}\)
⇒ r = 6
Now for given equation of circle, x2 + y2 + 10x + 12y + c = 0
g = 5, f = 6, r = 6
⇒ r = \(\sqrt{g^2 + f^2 - c}\)
⇒ \(6=\sqrt{5^2 + 6^2 - c}\)
⇒ c = 25
∴ The correct answer is option (2).
Area Question 6:
What is the area bounded by the lines x = 0, y = 0 and x + y + 2 = 0?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 6 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Area of Triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Calculation:
Here, x = 0, y = 0 and x + y + 2 = 0
So when x = 0, y = -2 and
when y = 0, x = -2
so we get points, (0, -2) and (-2, 0)
Now, area of triangle = 1/2 × 2 × 2
= 2 square units.
Hence, option (3) is correct.
Area Question 7:
Find the value of a for which the points (a, 2a), (3, 1) and (- 2, 6) are collinear ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 7 Detailed Solution
CONCEPT:
Let A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) be the vertices of a Δ ABC, then area of Δ ABC = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
Note: If the points A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are collinear then area of ΔABC = 0.
CALCULATION:
Here, we have to find the value of a for which the points (a, 2a), (3, 1) and (- 2, 6) are collinear
Let A = (a, 2a), B = (3, 1) and C = (- 2, 6)
Let x1 = a, y1 = 2a, x2 = 3, y2 = 1, x3 = - 2 and y3 = 6
As we know that, if A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are the vertices of a Δ ABC then area of Δ ABC = |A| where A = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
\(⇒ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a}}&{{2a}}&1\\ {{3}}&{{1}}&1\\ {{-2}}&{{6}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
⇒ A = (20 - 15a)/2
∵ The given points are collinear.
As we know that, if the points A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are collinear then area of ΔABC = 0.
⇒ A = (20 - 15a)/2 = 0
⇒ a = 4/3
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
Area Question 8:
Let a, b, c be the lengths of sides BC, CA, AB respectively of a triangle ABC. If p is the perimeter and q is the area of the triangle, then what is \(p(p-2a) \tan \left(\frac{A}{2}\right)\) equal to ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 8 Detailed Solution
Concept:
The perimeter of the triangle = sum of all sides
Area of triangle = (1/2)base × height
Calculation:
Since it is not mentioned, Δ ABC is which type of triangle. So, to make calculation easy
Let us assume, Δ ABC is a right-angle triangle where ∠A is 90°.
Let a = 5, b = 4, and c = 3 (Pythagorean triple)
Using the above concept, Perimeter
p = 3 + 4 + 5
⇒ p = 12
Area of triangle
q = (1/2) 3 × 4
⇒ q = 6
Hence, the required value
\(\Rightarrow p(p-2a) \tan \frac{A}{2}\) = 12(12 - 2 × 5)tan (90°/2) [∵ ∠A = 90°]
⇒
= 24 [∵ tan 45° = 1From option 4
4q = 4 × 6 = 24
∴ 4q is the correct answer.
Alternate MethodConcept:
The perimeter of the triangle = sum of all sides = a + b + c
Area of scalene triangle = \(\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\),
Half-angle formulae: \(\displaystyle tan(\frac{A}{2})=\sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}} \)
Where 2s = a + b + c and a, b, c are the sides of the triangle.
Calculation:
If p be the perimeter of the triangle,
p = a + b + c ------(1)
q = \(\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\) ------(2)
where a, b, c are the sides of the triangle.
Now,
\(\displaystyle p(p-2a) \tan \left(\frac{A}{2}\right)\) = (a + b+ c) (a + b+ c - 2a) \(\displaystyle \tan \left(\frac{A}{2}\right) \)
⇒ (a + b+ c) (a + b+ c - 2a) \(\displaystyle \sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}} \)
⇒ (a + b+ c) (a + b+ c - 2a) \(\displaystyle \sqrt{\frac{(s-b)(s-c)}{s(s-a)}×\frac{s(s-a)}{ s(s-a)}} \)
Area Question 9:

Note: If the points A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are collinear then area of ΔABC = 0.
CALCULATION:
Here, we have to find the value of k for which the points (7, - 2), (5, 1) and (3, k) are collinear
Let A = (7, - 2), B = (5, 1) and C = (3, k)
Let x1 = 7, y1 = - 2, x2 = 5, y2 = 1, x3 = 3 and y3 = k.
As we know that, if A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are the vertices of a Δ ABC then area of Δ ABC = |A| where A = \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x_1}}&{{y_1}}&1\\ {{x_2}}&{{y_2}}&1\\ {{x_3}}&{{y_3}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
\(⇒ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{7}}&{{- 2}}&1\\ {{5}}&{{1}}&1\\ {{3}}&{{k}}&1 \end{array}} \right|\)
⇒ |A| = 4 - k
∵ The given points are collinear.
As we know that, if the points A (x1, y1), B (x2, y2) and C (x3, y3) are collinear then area of ΔABC = 0.
⇒ |A| = 4 - k = 0
⇒ k = 4
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Area Question 10:
The sides of a triangular field are 41 m, 40 m and 9 m. The number of rose beds that can be prepared in the field if each rose bed, on an average, needs 900 square cm space is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Area Question 10 Detailed Solution
Given:
The sides of a triangular field are 41 m, 40 m and 9 m.
Formula used:
Area of triangular field = √ s(s - a) (s - b) (s - c)
S = a +b + c / 2
Calculation:
S = 41 + 40 + 9 / 2 = 90 / 2 = 45m
Area of triangular filed = √ 45(45 - 41) (45 - 9) (45 - 40)
⇒ 4 × 5 × 9 = 180m2 = 180 × 104 cm2
NOW 900 cm2 area required for 1 rose bed
⇒ 180 × 104 cm2 area required for 180 × 104 / 900 rose
∴ 2000 rose bed
