Question
The table given below contains some measures of the right angled triangle. Find the unknown values.
| Base | Height | Area |
| ? | 12 m | 24 sq.m |
Solution
Area of the right triangle = `1/2 xx ("base" xx "height") "unit"^2`
24 = `1/2 xx "b" xx 12 "m"^2`
Base = `(24 xx 2)/12` m
= 4 m
Base = 4 m
Tabulating the unknown values
| Base | Height | Area |
| 4 m | 12 m | 24 sq.m |
