Answer:
5. 21 cm^2
6. 18 cm^2
7. 10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
5. Area of triangle = 1/2(base * height)
Given is a right angled triangle. And we know the two smaller sides of a right angled triangle are base and altitude. So here we have
b= 6
h= 7
Area = 1/2(6*7)
= 21 cm^2
6. given base = 5
hypotenuse = 13
By Pythagoras theorem altitude=√(13^2-5^2)
= √ 169-25
=√144
= 12
So the area = 1/2(5*12)
=18 cm^2
7. given area = 120
altitude = 24
equation of area is 1/2(b*h)
i.e., 1/2(b*24) = 120
12b = 120
b = 10 cm
