उत्तर
For each triangular piece,
Semi-perimeter,
`s=(20+50+50)/2=60 cm`
By Heron’s formula,
`"Area of triangle "=sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))`
`"Area of each triangle piece "=[sqrt(60(60-50)(60-50)(60-20))]cm^2`
`=[sqrt(60(10)(10)(40))]cm^2`
`=200sqrt6cm^2`
Since there are 5 triangular pieces made of two different coloured cloths,
`"Area of each cloth required "=(5xx200sqrt6)cm^2=1000sqrt6cm^2`
