Solution

Let the base of rectangle be y , then its length will be = y+6

perimeter of triangle = 84

2(length + breadth) = 84

2(2y + 6) = 84

2y + 6 = 42

y = 18 m

length of rectangle = height of triangle = 18 + 6 = 24 m

Diagonal of rectangle = base of Triangle = $\sqrt{(24)^2 + (18)^2}$ = 30

Area of Triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times30\times24$

Area of Triangle = 360 sq m
