Step-by-step explanation:
An isosceles right triangle has an area of 98cm squared. Find the length of each leg.
The formula of finding the area of a triangle with one right angle is:
(b x h)/2
You know that an isoceles triangles has two equal sides. Those equal sides are the base and height. This means that both the base height with have the same value.
After you get the answer of the two isoceles legs, you need to figure out the other leg. To solve this by using the formula:
a^2+b^2=c^2
a would be on leg length
b would be the other leg length
You just fill in the values and you get your answer. =)
