प्रश्न

The perimeter of a triangle with vertices (0, 4), (0, 0) and (3, 0) is

(A)\[7 + \sqrt{5}\]
(B) 5
(C) 10
(D) 12

उत्तर

Let us plot these coordinates, i.e. O(0, 0), A(0, 4) and B(3, 0), on the Cartesian plane.

We can observe that triangle AOB is a right-angled triangle with OB = 3 units and OA = 4 units.

Now, AB2 = OA2 + OB2                  (By Pythagoras theorem)

⇒ AB2 = (42 + 32) sq. units
           = (16 + 9) sq. units
           = 25 sq. units
⇒ AB = 5 units
Perimeter of ∆AOB = OA + AB + BO
                                 = (3 + 5 + 4) units
                                 = 12 units

Hence, the correct option is D.
