Answer 1

answer:- ox = 9√7/4cm

step by step:-

xyz is right angled triangle with x=90°,

xy=9cm,yz=12cm

(yz)²=(xy)²+(xz)²

(12)²=(9)²+(xz)²

(xz)²=(9)²+(12)²

(xz)²=81+144

(xz)²=225

xz= 3√7

erea of triangle ∆xyz=(1/2)xy×xz=

(1/2)yz×ox

=⟩xy×xz=yz×ox

=⟩9×3√7=12×ox

=⟩ox=9√7/4

:•ox=9√7/4cm

hope this answer is helpful
