Question

find the area of right triangle whose base is 3 cm, perpendicular is 2 cm and hypotenuse is 5 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2*3*2

=3 cm^2

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of the given right-angled triangle is 3 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

• The area of a triangle is defined as the space occupied by the triangle in a 2-dimensional plane. It can never be negative.

• The area of a right-angled triangle is given by  $\frac{1}{2} b h$ where b is the base and h is the height
• We are provided with dimensions of a right-angled triangle in which

        Base (b) = 3 cm

        Perpendicular (h) = 2 cm

        Hypotenuse = 5 cm

Calculation

Substitute the value in the formula

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} b h$

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} *3* 2$

Area of triangle =3 cm²

Therefore the area of the triangle comes out to be 3 cm²
