Answer:


Step-by-step explanation: Hai here is my answer

  • let the length of the rectangle =a
  • breadth of the rectangle=b
  • given b=4a/5 and also perimeter=180
  • so 2(a+4a/5)=180 , a+4a/5 =90
  • a=50 ,b=40
  • so the hypotenuse is 50cm
  • let the shortest side be x
  • another side of the right angle triangle be y
  • given x/y=1/2
  • so x=y/2 or y=2x
  • we know that x.x +y.y =a.a
  • so on solving we get x=10into root5
