Question

from the adjoining figure, find the area of triangle ABC,length of BC and the length of altitude from A TO BC

Answer 1

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 3 × 4

= 6

Therefore, area of triangle is 6 cm²

By Pythagoras theorem,

AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = 4² + 3²

AC² = 16 + 9

AC² = 25

AC = √25

AC = 5

Therefore, side AC = 5 cm
