It is: 0.5*25*20 = 250 square inches It doesn't matter whether or not a triangle is a right triangle; the area is always half of the base times the height.
What is the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle if it is area is 72 square inches?
A "3-4-5" right angled triangle has an area of 6 sq inches. (3x4)/2
12 inches
Area of triangle: 0.5*12*4 = 24 square inches
294 in^2
270 in2
Lets work it out:- If the legs are 12 and 16 inches, then a rectangle of that size would be 192 square inches in area. As the the diagonal of the rectangle makes two equal triangles (of legs 12 and 16 inches), the area of one of these is half the area of the triangle - 192/2 = 96 square inches.
It is: 0.5*25*20 = 250 square inches It doesn't matter whether or not a triangle is a right triangle; the area is always half of the base times the height.
What is the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle if it is area is 72 square inches?
The area is 294 square inches.
Area = 0.5*21*28 = 294 square inches
A "3-4-5" right angled triangle has an area of 6 sq inches. (3x4)/2
The area is 272 square inches.32*17/2=272
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
Area = 0.5*6*12 = 36 square inches
18 square inches
