Answer 2

Answer:

30 cm²

Given:

• The triangle is a right triangle
• Hypotenuse of the triangle = 13cm
• One side of the triangle is 5cm

To Find:

• Area of the triangle.

Solution:

According to Pythagoras theorem:

( Height)² + ( Base )² = ( hypotenuse )²

⟹ ( 5cm )² + ( Base )² = ( 13 cm )²

⟹ 25 cm² + (Base)² = 169 cm²

⟹ ( Base )² = 169cm² - 25cm²

⟹ ( Base )² = 144 cm²

⟹ Base = √( 144 cm² )

⟹ Base = 12 cm

The other side of the triangle is 12cm

Area of a right triangle :

⟹ 1/2 × Base × Height

⟹ 1/2 × 12cm × 5cm

⟹ 6cm × 5cm

⟹ 30 cm²

The area of the triangle is 30cm²
