Question

The hypoenuse of a right triangle is 25 cm. We know that the difference in lengths of the other two sides is 5 cm. We would like to find out the length of the two sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The other two sides can be found out by letting one side be x. Then, the other side would be equal to (x+5) because the difference of these sides is 5 cm.

After It, we can apply Pythagorous Theorem:- h² = b² + p² (Because the given triangle is a right triangle.)

As hypotenuse is given 25 cm and the other sides are x and (x+5), Now we can put the values.

After it, we'll get x = 15 cm as an answer. So the other side = x+5 = 15+5 =20 cm

Thus, we can find the other sides of right triangle.
