Question

The area of a right triangle is 210 square inches. The height of the right triangle is 35 inches.

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is $37\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

In this problem we have

$A=210\ in^{2}$

$h=35\ in$

step 1

Find the base of triangle

substitute the values and solve for b

$210=\frac{1}{2}b(35)$

$b=210*2/35=12\ in$

step 2

Applying the Pythagoras theorem find the length of the hypotenuse

$c^{2}=35^{2}+12^{2}\\ \\c^{2}=1,369\\ \\c= 37\ in$

Answer 2

35 squared + 35 squared
rad 2450
35 rad 2
