Assumption
Smaller side be p
Hence,
Other side be (p + 5)
(H)² = (B) + (P)²
(25)² = (p)² + (p + 5)²
625 = p² + p² + 10p + 25
2p² + 10p - 625 + 25 = 0
2p² + 10p - 600 = 0
p² + 5p - 300 = 0
p² + 20p - 15p - 300 = 0
p(p + 20) - 15 (p + 20) = 0
(p - 15) (p + 20) = 0
p = 15, p = - 20
Hence,
p = 15 cm
Other side
= 15 + 5 = 20 cm
Therefore,
Area of triangle
= 150 cm²
Hence,
