Question
The area of ∆ABC is 8 cm2 in which AB = AC = 4 cm and ∠A = 90º.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is True.
Explanation:
We have, ABC is a right angled triangle at A, where sides are given AB = AC = 4 cm
∴ Area of a triangle ABC = `1/2` (Base × Height)
= `1/2` × AC × AB
= `1/2` × 4 × 4
= 8 cm2
