उत्तर

Area of a right-angled triangle is 30 cm2. If its smallest side is 5 cm, then its hypotenuse is 13 cm.

Explanation:

Given, area of a right-angled triangle = 30 cm2

and smallest side i.e. base = 5 cm

We know that,

Area of right angled triangle = `1/2` × Base × Height

∴ 30 = `1/2` × 5 × Height

⇒ Height = `(30 xx 2)/5`

⇒ Height = 12 cm

Now, according to Pythagoras theorem,

(Hypotenuse)2 = (Perpendicular)2 + (Base)2

⇒ (Hypotenuse)2 = (12)2 + (5)2  ......[∵ Height = Percendicular]

⇒ (Hypotenuse)2 = 144 + 25

⇒ (Hypotenuse)2 = 169

⇒ Hypotenuse = `sqrt(169)`

⇒ Hypotenuse = 13 cm
