Answer 2

It is given that,

Three sides of the triangle are :

• 5 cm ( A )
• 12 cm ( B )
• 13 cm ( C )

Area Of Triangle = √ (S(S-A)(S-B)(S-C))

Now,

S = 5+12+13/2

∴ S = 15

Now,

Area = √(5×3×5×2×3×2)

Area = √ (900)

Area = 30

Now,

Area Of Triangle = 1/2× Base × Height

⇒ Base = 13

Now,

⇒ 1/2×13×Height = 30

⇒ 13×Height = 60

⇒ Height = 60/13

∴ Height = 4.61 cm
