If we say that the base width is "b", the height is "h", and the area is "a", then we are told that:
b + h = 20
∴h = 20 - b
Now, given the nature of a triangle, we know that it's area is half it's base times it's height, so we can also say:
a = bh/2
Now we can combine those equations, narrowing it down to one variable
∴a = b(20 - b)/2
∴a = 10b - b2/2
This equation gives us a parabola. Looking at the equation, you can see that it's an inverted parabola, with it's peak pointing "upwards". To find the point at which that parabola peaks, we need to know when it has a slope of 0. To find that point, we first need the slope of the curve, which we can get by taking it's derivative:
a = 10b - b2/2
∴a' = 10 - b
if a' = 0, then b = 10.
∴ The highest point on that curve occurs when b = 10, ie, when it's base has a width of ten and when it's height is also 10. This makes sense. Consider: the highest ratio of area to border in a rectangle will happen when that rectangle is a square. Since the area of a rectangle is in fact half the area of the a square with the same width and height, that same relationship will hold true. So in order to get the maximum ratio of area to perimeter in a triangle, it's width and height should be the same.

The area of a regular hexagon with side length of 20cm is about 1039.23cm2
It is 1/5

Its 20cm
If it's a right triangle the formula for area is 1/2base times the height. so 1/2(15)(20) which is 10 times 15 so the answer would be 150.

A cylinder with a surface area of 200cm2 and a height of 20cm has a volume of about 137.96cm3
The surface are of a cylinder whose radius is 10cm and height is 20cm is 1884.96cm2
It will have 3 equal sides of 20cm Using Pythagoras's' theorem its height is 17.32050808cm Using the formula for area:1/2*base*height its area is 173.32050808cm2
