  1. Answer:

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The other two sides can be found out by letting one side be x. Then, the other side would be equal to (x+5) because the difference of these sides is 5 cm.

    After It, we can apply Pythagorous Theorem:- h² = b² + p² (Because the given triangle is a right triangle.)

    As hypotenuse is given 25 cm and the other sides are x and (x+5), Now we can put the values.

    After it, we’ll get x = 15 cm as an answer. So the other side = x+5 = 15+5 =20 cm

    Thus, we can find the other sides of right triangle.
