Question

the sides of a right angled triangle forming the right angle are 5 cm and 12 cm . find the radius of the circumcircle of the triangle

Answer 1

answer is 6.5 and it's hypotenuse is 13 cm

Answer 2

Answer -

The two sides of a right angled triangle forming the right angle are 5 cm and 12 cm 

Therefore, hypotenuse (third side of the right angle triangle) = sqrt of (5^2 + 12^2)
 hypotenuse = 13 cm

radius of the circumcircle of the triangle = half the length of the hypotenuse
                                    
                                                                = 13/2 
                                         
                                                                = 6.5 cm
