Question

In a right-angled triangle, base is 12 cm
and hypotenuse is 15 cm. Find the
perpendicular​

Answer 1

Answer:

ans is 9 we can solve this question by Pythagoras theorem

Answer 2

according to Pythagoras theorem,

hypotenuse ²=perpendicular ²+base²

→15²=perpendicular ²+12²

or 15²-12²=perpendicular ²

225-144=perpendicular ²

81=perpendicular ²

or perpendicular =√81

perpendicular=9 cm
