Answer 2

Answer:

Area of a triangle =

$\frac{1}{2} \times base \times height$

Step-by-step explanation:

In case of a isosceles right angled triangle , the height and base are always the equal sides .

Let the length of the equal sides be "a" cm .

By Pythagoras Theorem ,

Hypotenuse =

$\sqrt{ {a}^{2} + {a}^{2} }$

$= a \sqrt{2}$

Area = 8 = 1/2*a*a

=> a²=16 => a=4

So , hypotenuse = 4√2 cm [ Ans ]
