Question

find the area of a right angled triangle with hypotenuse 26 cm and a side of length 24 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 24× 26

= 312cm square .

Answer 2

Given:

• Side of the triangle is 24cm.
• Hypotenuse of the triangle is 26cm.

To find:

• Area of triangle?

Solution:

• Let's consider ABCD is an triangle.

Where,

• Side = perpendicular = 24cm
• Hypotenuse = length = 26cm

• Let height of the triangle be h.

⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀

« Now, By using Pythagoras theorem,

→ h² = p² + b²

→ (26)² = (24)² + (b)²

→ 676 = 576 + (b)²

→ (b)² = 676 - 576

→ √b² = √100

→ b = 10cm

⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀

« Now, Let's find area of the triangle,

→ Area = 1/2 × b × h

→ 1/2 × 24 × 10

→ 1 × 12 × 10

→ 120cm²

∴ Hence, Area of the triangle 120cm².
