Question

find the length of hypotenuse of an isosceless right angled triangle having an area of 200m^2

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

area of isosceles right triangle =1/2×base×height

where, base =height----------(i)

1/2×base ×height =200m²(given)

so,=> base ²=200×2(using equ.i)

base=height =20m

now using pythagoras theorem

h²=b²+he²(where h=hypotenuse, b=base & he=height)

h²=20²+20²

=> h²= 400+400

h²=800

h = root under 800

h= 20root 2 meter
