Question

The base and the hypotenuse of right angle triangle are respectively 5cm and 13cm long.Find its area

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a right angled triangle = 1/2 * base * height

height = 13cm

base = 5cm

•hence area is 1/2 * 13 * 5

•area is 65/2

32.5cm²

Answer 2

30sq.cm

Step-by-step explanation:

b=5cm

h=?

hypo=13cm

h^2=13^2-5^2

h^2=144

h=√144

h=12

Area=1/2×b×h

area=1/2×5×12

=>30sq.cm
