The hypotenuse of a right angle triangle is 13 cm. If one other side of the triangle is 1 cm shorter than the hypotenuse, calculate the third side of the triangle |

Answer» Step-by-step explanation: HYPOTENUSE of triangle = 13cm let the 1CM shorter( = 12cm ) side is perpendicular side and we have to find THIRD side (base) of triangle by Pythagoras theorem H² = P² + B² (13)² = (12)² + B² B² = (13)²– (12)² B² = 169 – 144 B² = 25 B = 5 Therefore third side of triangle = 5 cm hope it helps you :) |
