Question

A right triangle has legs of length 10 feet and 13 feet. What is the area of the triangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option A. $65\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a right triangle the legs are perpendicular

the area is equal to multiply the two legs and  divide by two

$A=\frac{1}{2}(10)(13)=65\ ft^{2}$
