Answer:
Hope this answer will satisfy you. Plz mark brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
let hypotenuse be x
5² + 12² = x²
x² = 25 + 144
x² = 169
x = underroot 169 = 13
GiveN :
- Two of it's perpendicular sides are of measures 5cm and 12cm.
To FinD :
- Hypotenuse of the triangle
SolutioN :
As we know that the perpendicular sides of a right angles triangles are Base and Perpendicular.
Let,
- Base (B) = 5 cm
- Perpendicular (P) = 12 cm

Use Pythagoras Theorem :
⇒(Hypotenuse)² = (Base)² + (Perpendicular)²
⇒AC² = AB² + BC²
⇒H² = B² + P²
⇒H² = (5)² + (12)²
⇒H² = 25 + 144
⇒H² = 169
⇒H = √(169)
⇒H = 13
Length of Hypotenuse is 13 cm.

Additional Information :
• Triangle is a 2-Dimensional shape.
• Triangle have three sides.
• There are three types of triangles : Isosceles triangle, Scalen triangle and equilateral triangle.
• In Isosceles triangle, two sides of triangle are equal and one side is different lengths.
• In Scalen triangle, all the three sides of triangle of different lengths.
• In equilateral triangle, all the sides of triangle are of equal length.
