Question

In the right angle triangle the hypotenuse is 10 cm more than the shortest side.if the third side is 6cm less than hypotenuse, find the sides of the right angle triangle

Answer 1

hypotenuse is (2x+6) i.e., (BC) is 26 cm and the other side (AB) is (2x+4) i.e., 24 cm .

Answer 2

Answer:

×=8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing side be x and name of the triangle be ABC hypotenuse ac smallest ab other side x

Use Pythagoras theorem

(ac)² = (x)²+(ab)²

10² = (x)² + 6²

x² = 100 - 36

x= -/64

x=8
