Question

Find the area of a right angled triangle whose sides containing the right angle are of lengths 20.8 m and 14.7 m.

Answer 1

In a right-angled triangle,

The sides containing the right angles are of lengths 20.8 m and 14.7 m.

Let the base be 20.8 m and the height be 141 m.

Then,

Area of a triangle = 1/2 (Base x Height)

= 1/2 (20.8 × 14.7)

= 152.88 m2
