Question

find length of hypotenuse of an icoceles right traingle having area 200cm²​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two congruent sides of triangle be x.

» A (∆) = ½ × h × b

» 400 = x²

» x = 20 cm

Therefore, two congruent sides of isoceles are 20 cm each.

Now, hypotenuse = √(20² + 20²)

= 20√2 cm
