Question

B.
The square of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right angled triangle is 72 sq.cm. What is the length
of each side?​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the equal sides of the isosceles right angle triangle is x cm

here square of the hypotenuse =72 sq cm

so, perpendicular^2+base^2=hypotenuse^2

x^2+x^2=72

=> 2x^2=72

=> x^2=72/2=36

=> x=√36=6

length of base=6cm

length of perpendicular=6cm

length of hypotenuse=√72cm=6√2 cm
