We know that, the surface area 5 of a 'x' when length cube, is S = 6x2.

So,  dS=dSdxΔx=12xΔx.

Given decrease in side,  Δx=1%x=x100.

dS=12x (x100)=0.12x2 m2.

dy/dx = 2x² - 15x + 10.
For tangent at (a, b), slope is m = dx/dy = 1 / (dy/dx) = 1 / (2a² - 15a + 10).
Given slope is -1/3.
2a² - 15a + 10 = -3
2a² - 15a + 13 = 0 (The provided solution has 2a²-15a+7=0, suggesting a different problem or a typo)

C D = ( 1 0 + x 2 ) 2 ( 1 0 x 2 ) 2 = 2 1 0 | x |

Area 

= 1 2 × C D × A B = 1 2 × 2 1 0 | x | ( 2 0 2 x 2 )

1 0 x 2 = 2 x

3x2 = 10

 x = k

3k2 = 10

From option let it be isosceles where AB = AC then

x = r 2 ( h r ) 2            

r 2 h 2 r 2 + 2 r h

x = 2 h r h 2 . . . . . . . . ( i )

 Now ar ( Δ A B C ) = Δ = 1 2 B C × A L

Δ = 1 2 × 2 2 h r a 2 × h        

then  x = 2 × 3 r 2 × r 9 r 2 4 = 3 2 r f r o m ( i )

B C = 3 r    

So A B = h 2 + x 2 = 9 r 2 4 + 3 r 2 4 = 3 r .

Hence Δ be equilateral having each side of length 3 r .
