Question

Find the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right angle triangle if its area is 50 sq. m​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER

In an isosceles right angled triangle, the two sides on the right angle are equal

Let the equal side be a

Hence, hypotenuse of the isosceles right angled triangle of side a=

a

a=6cm

In the isosceles right triangle, the base and height =a

Hence, area of the triangle =
