MHT CET · Maths · Properties of Triangles

In a triangle with one of the angles \(120^{\circ}\), the lengths of the sides form an A.P. If length of the greatest side is 7 m , then the area of the triangle is

  1. A \(\frac{15 \sqrt{3}}{4} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  2. B \(\frac{15 \sqrt{3}}{2} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  3. C \(\frac{15}{2} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  4. D \(\frac{15}{4} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{15 \sqrt{3}}{4} \mathrm{~m}^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(c=7\), sides \(a=x-d\), \(b=x\) \(c^2 = a^2+b^2-2ab \cos C\)
