Question

If the area of an isosceles right angled triangle is 32cm2, then the length of its longeest altitude is equal to

Answer 1

let ABC be the Δwith AB=BC, right angled at B

∴longest altitude is basically equal to the sides of the Δ containing the 90° angle
∴longest altitude=AB=BC

ar of the Δ=32 cm²=1/2 *AB*BC=1/2*AB²
⇒AB²=64
∴AB=longest altitude=8 cm

i hope this helps!!
