Question

If the three sides of a triangle are 20cm , 50cm , 50cm.Find the length of altitude to the side 20cm

Answer 1

Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

given sides are 20 cm , 50 cm and 50cm

since the two sides of the triangle is equal therefore it is an isosceles triangle

the length of the altitude to the side 20cm = 20 / 2 cm ( altitude to the unequal side, bisects the side )

= 10 cm
