Question

If the area of a right triangle is 70 cm2 and one of the sides containing the right angle is 14 cm, find the length of the other leg. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

GIVEN :

• Area of triangle = 70 cm²
• Base of triangle = 14 cm

TO Find :

Height

S0LUTION :

We know that

$\boxed{ \rm \: Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times b \times h }$

70 = ½ × 14 × h

70 × 2 = 14 × h

140 = 14 × h

140 = 14h

140/14 = h

10 = h
