1.	Can a right triangle have sides that measure 5cm,12cm and13cm?
Answer» Answer: $\huge\color{blue}\boxed{\colorbox{black}{αղsաҽɾ⚡}}$ The HYPOTENUSE is always the biggest side in the triangle. Thus, we can see that equality holds that means that the triangle ABC is right-angled. We can say that Height = AB = 5cm and Base = BC = 12cm. Therefore, the AREA of the triangle with SIDES 5cm, 12cm, 13cm is 30cm2.

Answer:

$\huge\color{blue}\boxed{\colorbox{black}{αղsաҽɾ⚡}}$

The HYPOTENUSE is always the biggest side in the triangle. Thus, we can see that equality holds that means that the triangle ABC is right-angled.

We can say that Height = AB = 5cm and Base = BC = 12cm.

Therefore, the AREA of the triangle with SIDES 5cm, 12cm, 13cm is 30cm2.
