Maths
The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is 2 centimeters more than the longer of the side containing the right angle. The shorter of the side containing the right angle is 7 centimeters less than the longer side containing the right angle. Find the length of the hypotenuse.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
In aright triangle base is 2 cm more than height and hypotenuse is 2 cm more than height ,find all three sides of the triangle?
In the question , Hypotenuse and base are of equal lengths .but it is not possible in the triangle. Because the height will be 0 cm.
But side cannot be equal to zero (0,2,2)
(Let the height of a right triangle be
X cm
Base=height+2=(X+2) cm
Hypotenuse=height+2=(X+2)cm
By Pythagoras theorem
(x+2)²=x²+(x+2)²
=>(x+2)²-(X+2)²=x²
=>0=x²
=>x=0
Height=0 cm)
