Area and Perimeter of Plane Figures Exercise Ex. 20(D)
Solution 1
Let the sides of the triangle be
a = 12x
b = 5x
c = 13x
Given that the perimeter = 450 cm
⇒ 12x + 5x + 13x = 450
⇒ 30x = 450
⇒ x = 15
Hence, the sides of a triangle are
a = 12x = 12(15) = 180 cm
b = 5x = 5(15) = 75 cm
c = 13x = 13(15) = 195 cm

Construction: Draw CM ⊥ AB
In right-angled triangle CMB,
BM2 = BC2 - CM2 = (15)2 - (9)2 = 225 - 81 = 144

Solution 4
Let the sides of two squares be a and b respectively.
Then, area of one square, S1 = a2
And, area of second square, S2 = b2
Given, S1 + S2 = 400 cm2
⇒ a2 + b2 = 400 cm2 …..(1)
Also, difference in perimeter = 16 cm
⇒ 4a - 4b = 16 cm
⇒ a - b = 4
⇒ a = (4 + b)
Substituting the value of 'a' in (1), we get
(4 + b)2 + b2 = 400
⇒ 16 + 8b + b2 + b2 = 400
⇒ 2b2 + 8b - 384 = 0
⇒ b2 + 4b - 192 = 0
⇒ b2 + 16b - 12b - 192 = 0
⇒ b(b + 16) - 12(b + 16) = 0
⇒ (b +16)(b - 12) = 0
⇒ b + 16 = 0 or b - 12 = 0
⇒ b = -16 or b = 12
Since, the side of a square cannot be negative, we reject -16.
Thus, b = 12
⇒ a = 4 + b = 4 + 12 = 16

Also, distance between two radii = 14 cm
⇒ r1 + r2 = 14
⇒ r1 = (14 - r2)
Substituting the value of r1 in (i), we get
(14 - r2)2 + r22 = 130
⇒ 196 - 28r2 + r22 + r22 = 130
⇒ 2r22 - 28r2 + 66 = 0
⇒ r22 - 14r2 + 33 = 0
⇒ r22 - 11r2 - 3r2 + 33 = 0
⇒ r2 (r2 - 11) - 3 (r2 - 11) = 0
⇒ (r2 - 11) (r2 - 3) = 0
⇒ r2 = 11 or r2 = 3
⇒ r1 = 14 - 11 = 3 or r1 = 14 - 3 = 11
Thus, the radii of two circles are 11 cm and 3 cm respectively.
