Question

The area of a right-angled triangle is 30 unit squares. If its smallest side measures 5 units, then the hypotenuse will measure _____.​

Answer 1

we know, area  of right triangle= 1/2 (base x height)

Step-by-step explanation:

30 unit sq= 1/2 x5x height

height= 12 units

By pythagorea theorem,

$(hypotenuse)^{2} = (perpendicular)^{2}+ (base)^{2}$

$(hypotenuse)^{2} = (5)^{2}+ (12)^{2} \\(hypotenuse)^{2} = 25+144\\(hypotenuse)^{2} = 169\\hypotenuse= 13 units$

13 units is our hypotenuse

Answer 2

Answer:

13 units
