Find the area of an isosceles right angle triangle whose equal sides are 15 cm each.
Answers
Answer:
Base = 15cm
Height = 15cm
=> 1/2 × base × height
=> 1/2 × 15 × 15
=> 1/2 × 225
=> 225/2
=> 112.5cm²
Hence, the area of an isosceles equilateral triangle is 112.5cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Side of an isosceles equilateral triangle = 15cm.
Find:
Area of triangle
Solution:
All sides of an Isosceles equilateral triangle are equal.
Side = 15cm
The area of an isosceles equilateral triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Base = 15cm
Height = 15cm
=> 1/2 × base × height
=> 1/2 × 15 × 15
=> 1/2 × 225
=> 225/2
=> 112.5cm²
Hence, the area of an isosceles equilateral triangle is 112.5cm²
Important Information:
The Formula for Isosceles Triangle:-
The perimeter of an Isosceles Triangle: P = 2× a + b
Area of an Isosceles Triangle: A = 1/2 × b × h
The altitude of an Isosceles Triangle: h = √(a²–b²/4)
Where,
- P = Perimeter
- a = The measure of the equal sides
- b = The base of the triangle
- A = Area
- h = Altitude or height of the triangle
I hope it will help you.
