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

\therefore 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.
