Answer:
We know that in an isosceles right angled triangle, the length of the base and height is equal.
Let the length of base be y
Length of height = y
Area = 200 cm²
⇒ 1/2 × b × h = 200
1/2 × y × y = 200
y²/2 = 200
y² = 400 [after cross multiply]
y = √400
y = 20
Length of base and height = 20 cm
Now we find the length of hypotenuse using PYTHAGORAS THEOREM
(B)² + (A)² = (H)²
(20)² + (20)² = (H)²
400 + 400 = H²
800 = H²
√800 = H
√400 × 2 = H
20√2 = H
The length of hypotenuse = 20√2 cm OR 28.28 cm
