Answer:
9.765 [Approx.]
1st:- Triangle is isosceles
2nd:- The height divides the triangle into two congruent triangle that have a 90degree angle.
So using the Pythagorean triplet, we can find the height, but in the other way
H²(hypotenuse) = P²(perpendicular)+ B²(Base)
Hypotenuse = 5cm (because it is opposite to the perpendicular vertex of the triangle)
Base = 4.5 (because the height divides the triangle into two congruent triangles)
Perpendicular= Unknown
let the value of perpendicular be 'y'
So, this is the answer, see it carefully
5² = y² + 4.5²
25 = y² + 20.25
25 - 20.25 = y²
4.75 = y²
2.17 = y
Base = 9cm
Height = 2.17
Area = (1/2 x base x height)cm²
= (1/2 x 9 x 2.17)cm²
= (1/2 x 19.53)cm²
= 9.765cm² [approx.]
