Question 72
Find the perimeter of a right angle triangle whose sides have sizes of 5 cm and 12 cm.
Solution
In the right angled triangle, lengths of the sides are 12 cm and 5 cm
Hypotenuse$$^2$$ = 12$$^2$$ + 5$$^2$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Hypotenuse$$^2$$ = 144 + 25
$$\Rightarrow$$ Hypotenuse$$^2$$ = 169
$$\Rightarrow$$ Hypotenuse = 13 cm
$$\therefore\ $$Perimeter of the right angled triangle = 13 + 12 + 5 = 30 cm
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
