Question

a plot of land is in the form of right angled triangle the legs of the plot are 20m and 12 m find its area​

Answer 1

Answer:

we know that area of aringt angled triangle is

AREA=1/2×base×height

=1/2×20×12

=120//

Answer 2

Given,

A plot of land is in the form of right angled triangle.

The legs of the plot are 20m and 12 m.

To find,

The area of the plot.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem using the following process:

Mathematically,

The legs of a right angled triangle refers to the two adjacent sides of the triangle other than the hypotenuse.

Area of a right angled triangle

= 1/2 × (base) × (height/perpendicular)

= 1/2 × (product of the legs of the triangle)

{Statement-1}

Now, according to the question;

The area of the plot in the shape of a right angled triangle

= 1/2 × (product of the legs of the triangle)

{according to statement-1}

= 1/2 × 20 m × 12 m

= 120 m^2

Hence, the area of the plot in the shape of a right angled triangle is equal to 120 m^2.
