Find the area of a right triangle in which base is equal to 24cm and hypotenuse is 25cm.

In the right angled triangle -

Base=24cm

Hypotenuse=25 cm

According to pythagoras property

hypotenuse square=base square +altitude square

Thus,altitude square=hypotenuse square-base square

atitude square=25 square-24 square

altitude square=625-576

altitude square=49

altitude=7

AREA OF THE TRIANGLE

1/2*b*h

=1/2*24*7

=84(ans)

The answer is 300cm*

First draw a right angled triangle.According to question base=24cm and hypotenuese=25cm.Then find the area of the triangle=1/2xbxh

=1/2x25x24 =1/2 x 600 =600/2 =300cm* Ans.
