Question

An isosceles right triangle has area 16 cm². The length of its hypotenuse is:

Answer 1

Answer:

8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

base=height = a

hypotenuse = a √2

area of isosceles triangle =a^2/2=16

a =√32

a=4√2

length of it's hypotenuse= a √2= 4√2* √2 4*2=8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: 8cm^2

Step-by-step explanation: Given, The area isosceles right angle triangle is 16 sq cm

We know area of isosceles right angle triangle

A=a^2/2  where a is the sides of isosceles right angle triangle.

 a^2/2=16

a=4underoot2

For an isosceles right triangle with side lengths a, the hypotenuse  has length a underoot 2

Then hypotenuse  isosceles right angle triangle then side is 4  underoot 2=8cm
