Answer:
area of. a right angle triangle is
1/2×base×height
therefore 1/2×15×height=60
15×height=60×2
15×height=120
height=120/15
height=8
therefore
now using Pythagoras property
a²+b²=c²
8²+15²=c²
64+225=c²
289=c²
√289=c
17cm=c
therefore hypotenuse is equal to 17
height is equal to 8
base is equal to 15
now perimeter=sum of all sides
=17+15+8
=40cm
