A right triangle that has one side 4 inches long and the hypotenuse 5 inches long must have the other side the square root of 52 - 42 which is 3. So if it was a rectangle the area would be 3 x 4 =
12 square inches. So the triangle will be half this are and thus 6 square inches.
Another way would be to say base x 1/2 the height so 3 x 4/2 =
6 square inches.
Providing that it is a right angle triangle its area is about 73 square inches. Solved by using Pythagoras and 1/2*base*height = area
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 10m and a base of 5m has an area of: 21.65m2
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of length 15 and a leg of length 8 has an area of: 50.75 units2
The hypotenuse only is not sufficient to determine the area of a right triangle, unless the triangle is stated to be isosceles, or there is some other information that allows determination of the length of a side in addition to the hypotenuse. The area of a right triangle with a given hypotenuse only approaches zero as one of the two acute angles approaches zero degrees.
The area is approximately 71.2 units2
A "3-4-5" right angled triangle has an area of 6 sq inches. (3x4)/2
Providing that it is a right angle triangle its area is about 73 square inches. Solved by using Pythagoras and 1/2*base*height = area
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 10m and a base of 5m has an area of: 21.65m2
The length of the hypotenuse, alone, is not sufficient to determine the area of a triangle.
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of length 15 and a leg of length 8 has an area of: 50.75 units2
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 10 and a leg of length 7 has an area of: 24.99 units2
First, we want to look at the base to find its area. A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 10 inches and a leg of 8 inches has its other leg at 6 inches by the Pythagorean Theorem. Now we have both legs of the right triangle, so using the formula for area of a triangle, A=bh/2, we get an area of 24 square inches. Now, the volume of a pyramid is Bh/3, so 24*10/3=80 cubic inches.
I do believe you mean RIGHT triangle when you said perpendicular triangle. A right triangle has two legs and a hypotenuse. The area of a right triangle is 1/2 * (first leg) * (second leg) How do you determine which ones are the legs and which one is the hypotenuse? The hypotenuse is ALWAYS the largest number. So, choose the 2 smallest numbers.
The hypotenuse only is not sufficient to determine the area of a right triangle, unless the triangle is stated to be isosceles, or there is some other information that allows determination of the length of a side in addition to the hypotenuse. The area of a right triangle with a given hypotenuse only approaches zero as one of the two acute angles approaches zero degrees.

The area of a right-angled triangle with base 8 cm and hypotenuse 10 cm is: 24 cm2
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 65 meters and a leg of 25 meters has an area of: 750 square meters.
