Question

If the hypotenuse of a right triangle is known, what is the ratio of the base and the altitude of the right triangle when its area is maximum?

Answer 1

Answer:

Altitude of right angle triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of a right triangle divides the right-angled triangle into two similar triangles. According to the right triangle altitude theorem, the altitude drawn from the vertex on the hypotenuse is equal to the geometric mean of line segments formed by altitude on hypotenuse.
