Question

Construct triangle pqr in which qr = 7cm and hypotenuse pr = 7.5 cm​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, the hypotenuse is given. This means it is a Right Angle Triangle.

qr = 7 cm

pr = 7.5 cm

According to Pythagoras Formula, h^2 = p^2 + b^2

Then, pr^2 = pq^2 + qr^2

then, pq^2 = pr^2 - qr^2

then, pq = √ (7.5)^2 - (7)^2

= √ 7.25 cm

= 2.69 cm

Answer 2

height2 = h2 - b2

h2 = 7.5 - 7

h2 = 56.25 - 49

h2 = 7.25
