Question

The base of triangular field is 63m and its area is 504sq m. Find the length of hypotenuse of the field​

Answer 1

Answer:

height=16m

Step-by-step explanation:

base=63m

area=504sq m

hypotenuse=??

now,

area(a)=(1/2)b×h

504 =(1/2)63×h

504 =(63/2)×h

504/h =63/2

504×2 =63h(cross multiply)

1008 =63h

1008/63 =h

height =16m

Answer 2

Answer:

65 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2 * height * base [here, length]

=> 504 = 1/2 * length * 63

=> (504 * 2/63) = length

=> 16 = length

Thus, using Pythagoras theorem,

=> hypotenuse² = 16² + 63²

= 256 + 3969

= 4225

=> hypotenuse² = 65²

Hence, length of hypotenuse is 65 m
