Question:

What is the area of a triangle whose sides are 7 cm, 24 cm and 25 cm?

Options:

72 cm2

108 cm2

84 cm2

42 cm2

Correct Answer:

84 cm2

Explanation:

The three sides of the triangle = 7 cm, 24 cm and 25 cm

As we know this is a right angle triangle ,

So the area of a right angle triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × Base × Height

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 24 × 7 = 84 cm2
