Question

12) The perpendicular side of the right angle triangle are 5x and 12x. If the length
of its hypotenuse is 2cm find the length of its perpendicular sides.​

Answer 1

Answer:

by phythagores theorem,

(5x)^2 + (12x)^2 =2^2

25x^2+144x^2=4

169x^2=4

√169x^2=√4

13x=2

x=2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=5*2/13=10/13cm

12x=12*2/13=24/13cm
