Solution

The sides of the triangle (i.e., a, b, c) are of 122 m, 22 m, and 120 m respectively.

Perimeter of triangle = (122 + 22 + 120) m

2s = 264 m

s = 132 m

By Heron’s formula,

Rent of 1 m2 area per year = Rs 5000

Rent of 1 m2 area per month = Rs

Rent of 1320 m2 area for 3 months =

= Rs (5000 × 330) = Rs 1650000

Therefore, the company had to pay Rs 1650000.
