The area of a rectangle is equal to the area of right-angles triangle. What is the length of the rectangle?
I. The base of the triangle is 40 cm.
II. The height of the triangle is 50 cm.
A.

B.
II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer |
C.
Either I or II alone sufficient to answer |
D.
Both I and II are not sufficient to answer |
E.
Both I and II are necessary to answer |
Answer : Option D
Explanation :
Given: Area of rectangle = Area of a right-angles triangle.
l x b =\(\frac { 1 } { 2 } \)xBxH
I gives, B = 40 cm.
II gives, H = 50 cm.
Thus, to find l, we need b also, which is not given.
Given data is not sufficient to give the answer.
Correct answer is (D).
