Question

2. The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 13 cm. If one of the side of the
triangle be 5 cm long, find the length of the other side.
3. The length of two sides of a right triangle are equal. The​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We will find the answer by Pythagorus theorem.

Let the triangle be (Triangle) ABC.

Let the Hypotensue be AC and other sides be AB and BC.

Let BC be 5cm.

(AC)^2= (BC)^2 + (AB)^2

13^2= 5^2 + (AB)^2

169=25+ (AB)^2

169-25= (AB)^2

144=(AB)^2

AB= square root of 144

Hence the other side would be 12 cm.

Answer 2

Answer:12

Step-by-step explanation:

base square=hypotenuse square - altitude square

base square=13 square-5 square

                    =169-25

base square=144

base=√144

        =12
