Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1 ) base = 20 metres
2 ) altitude = 20 metres
3 ) hypotenuse= 28.28 metres
Step-by-step explanation:
( refer to image for diagram )
in an isosceles right angled triangle, the base and altitude are in equal length
so let altitude = base = "x"
we know that area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height
=> 1/2 * x * x = 200
=> x * x = 200 * 2
=> x² = 400
=> x =
= 20 metres
so altitude = base = 20 metres
let hypotenuse = "h"
we know that in a right angled triangle , altitude² + base² = hypotenuse² ( Pythagoras' Theorem )
so x² + x² = h²
=> ( 20 )² + ( 20 )² = h²
=> 400 + 400 = h²
=> h² = 800
=> h =
=
= 20 *
= 28.28 ( approx )
therefore the
1 ) base = 20 metres
2 ) altitude = 20 metres
3 ) hypotenuse= 28.28 metres
