Question

construct a right angle triangle whose hypotense is 10cm ans one side is 6 cm

Answer 1

let the triangle be name LMN

in triangle LMN

angle LMN is 90 degree

therefore triangle LMN is right angled triangle

therefore by Pythagoras theorem

hypotenuse square = sum of the square of the other two sides

LN square= LM square + MN square

10 square = 6 square + x square

100 = 36 + x

100-36 = x

64 square = x

8 = x

x = 8

second side of a triangle is 8 cm
