Question

if two perpendicular sides of a right angled triangle is 12 cm and 16 cm its area is

Answer 1

formula to calculate area of triangle= 1/2×b×h

=1/2×12/16

area of triangle=

$=96cm^2$

Answer 2

Area of a right angled Δ = $\frac{1}{2}$ × base × height

                                         = $\frac{1}{2}$ ×12 cm ×16cm

                                         =96 cm²

Ans :_ Area of the right angled triangle will be 96cm².
