(b) 7.5 cm.
Area of a triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x base x height
= In-radius x semi-perimeter of the Δ \(\big[\text{Using r =}\frac{\Delta}{s}\big]\)
Let the sides of triangle be 4x, 5x and 6x respectively.
Given: In-radius = 3 cm
Therefore, 3 x \(\frac{(4x+5x+6x)}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 6\(x\) x h, where h is the height.
⇒ 3 x \(\frac{15x}{2}\) = \(\frac{6x}{2}\) x h ⇒ h = \(\frac{45}{6}\) = 7.5 cm.
