let the side containing right angle be the base.
area of Δ=1\2 * base * height
38.5 =1\2*11*height
385*2÷11*10= height
7cm = height
if you want to find the hypotenuse also you can use the pythagoreus theorum,
H²=base²+perpendicular²
H²=11²+7²
H²=121+49
H²=170
H=√170 CM
here H is hypotenuse

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a right angled triangle is 1/2 bh
given
1/2 (14.8)(h) = 129.5
7.4(h)=129.5
h=17.5
The other side is 17.5cm
