Question

The area of a right triangle is 210 in². The height of the right triangle is 35 in.

Answer 1

The area of a triangle is calculated by the expression as follows:

Area = bh / 2

where b is the base and h is the height.

We can calculate the hypotenuse as follows:

210 = b(35) / 2
b = 12

hypotenuse = sqrt(35^2 + 12^2)
hypotenuse = 37 in
