Answer:

Area = 384 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 96 cm

Ratio = 6:8:10

So,

6x+8x+10x = 96

=> 24x = 96

<u><em>Dividing both sides by 24</em></u>

=> x = 4

So, The sides are

=> 24 cm

=> 32 cm

=> 40 cm

<u><em>Now the area using Heron's Formula</em></u>

Area = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

Where s is the semi-perimeter = 48 cm, a , b and c are the sides

Area = \sqrt{48(48-24)(48-32)(48-40)}

Area = \sqrt{48(24)(16)(8)}

Area = \sqrt{147,456}

Area = 384 cm²

Answer:

384 centimeters squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

96/(6+8+10)

96/24 = 4

6×4 : 8×4 : 10×4

24:32:40

The length of its sides are in the ratio of 24:32:40

The longest side is the hypotenuse which is 40.

The area is base × height × 1/2 of a triangle.

32 × 24 × 1/2

768 × 1/2

=384

The area of the triangle is 384 cm squared.

Yes, EF is parallel to CD. Translation is the simple slide of a shape, therefore it doesn't have an effect on parallel lines.
