Question

a garden in the form of a right angled triangle has an area of 72 square meterif the two sides comprising the right angles are equal what could be the length of these sides ​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

let the sides containing right angles be x  , as they are equal

area of triangle =1/2*b*h

         b=x     h=x        area=72 m sq.

therefore

    1/2*b*h=72

     1/2*x*x=72

     1/2*x²=72

     x²=144

    x=±√12

   as length cant be negetive therefore

    length of these side=12 m
