Question

what is the area, in square millieters, of a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 68 millimeters and leg of 60 millimeters?

a. 2,040 mm^2
b. 1,920 mm^2
c. 1,088 mm^2
d. 960 mm^2

Answer 1

find length of the other leg using pythagoras
= sqrt(68^2 - 60^2)
then the area = 0.5 * 60 * this value

Answer 2

30...?

Answer 3

what - the other leg - pretty close

Answer 4

so area = 30 * length of other leg

Answer 5

sqrt (1024)

Answer 6

- thats the other leg

Answer 7

ok
