Answer:
area of triangle=8 cm square...
Area of the ∆ABC is 8 sq cm.
Given :
The perimeter of the right angled isosceles triangle is (8+4√2) cm.
To find out :
Area of the given triangle .
Solution :
ABC is a right angled triangle. A right angled triangle is a triangle in which one angle is a right angle or 90° .
An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two sides of a triangle are congruent.
so let AB = BC = x cm
We know that
Perimeter of a triangle = Sum of all three sides of a triangle.
Perimeter of ∆ ABC = AB + BC + AC
We are given perimeter of ∆ ABC = 4√2
Hence
x + x + √x² + x²=
x + x + √2x² = 4√2
2x + √2x² = 4√2
2x + x√2 = 4√2
If we compare both the sides we get
2x + x = 8 +4
3x =12
x =4
so we got
AB = 4 cm
BC = 4 cm
now we have to find area of ∆ ABC .
we know formula for area of a triangle
Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height
= 1/2 x 4 x 4 sq cm
= 2x 4
= 8 sq cm
Hence area of ∆ ABC = 8 sq cm
