Question

find the area of a roght angle triangle whose base is 52 cm and hypotenuse is 65 cm ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of a triangle: 1/2 x base x height

Base= 52 cm

Hypotenuse= Height= 65 cm

1/2 x 52 x 65= 1690 cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Right angle triangle, Using Pythagoras theorem

${base}^{2} + {adjacent}^{2} = {hypotenuse}^{2}$

therefore

base = 52cm

hypotenuse =65cm

${52}^{2} + {adjacent}^{2} = {65 }^{2} \\ 2704 + {adjacent}^{2} = 4225 \\ {adjacent}^{2} = 4225 - 2704 \\ {adjacent}^{2} = 1521 \\ adjacent = \sqrt{1521} = 39$

Therefore Adjacent side is 39cm
