the area of right angled triangle is 96 square centimetres. one of the perpendicular sifes is 16 cm long. what is is the length of the other? About the author Amara
We know area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height so, 1/2 ×16×base = 96 (as a perpendicular to any triangle is its height) base = 96/8 base = 12 hence the other side is 12. Thank you Reply
