Aa right triangle has sides measuring 8 centimeteres, 15 centimeters and 17 centimeters. what is the area of the piece

Area = 127.5cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Length of first side = 8 cm

Length of second side = 15 cm

Length of third side = 17cm

To find,

Area of triangle

to find which of the sides is hypotenuse use Pythagorus theorem

hypotenuse² = height² + base²

17² = 8² + 15²

289 = 289

hence 17 is the hypotenuse and other two are height and base

Area of triangle = 1/2 15 * 17

Area of triangle = 1/2 (255)

Area of triangle = 127.5

300

step-by-step explanation:

28-600w < 300

28-600w > 300

600-28w < 300

600-28w > 300
