Q9 If the square of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 200
sq metres; find the length of each side.
Answers
S O L U T I O N :
If the square of the hypotenuse of an Isosceles right triangle is 200 m² .
Isosceles triangle are those triangle which has two sides are equal than third side.
A/q
Let the length of each side be x
⇒ (Hypotenuse)² = (base)² + (Perpendicular)²
⇒ 200 = (x)² + (x)²
⇒ 200 = 2x²
⇒ x² = 200/2
⇒ x² = 100
⇒ x = √100
⇒ x = 10 m
Thus,
The length of each side will be 10 m .
Answer:
Question:-
If the square of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right angled triangle is 200 m², find the length of each side.
Solution:-
When we say that the right angled triangle is also isosceles, it means that the base and perpendicular are equal in length.
BY PYTHAGORAS THEOREM:-
(B)² + (P)² = (H)²
If the base and perpendicular are of equal value, we can assume their length as ‘x’.
(x)² + (x)² = (H)²
x² + x² = 200
2x² = 200
x² = 200/2
x² = 100
x = √100
x = 10
Base = 10 cm = Perpendicular
Base = 10 cm
Perpendicular = 10 cm
