Given the perimeter of the triangle △ADC equal to 30 cm.
From here we can calculate AD.
AD+DC+AD=PerimeterΔADC
AD+5+13=30
AD+18=30 /−18
AD=12
Now we can calculate the area of the triangle ΔABC
Pay attention: we are talking about an obtuse triangle therefore its height is AD.
We use the formula to calculate the area of the triangle:
2sideheight×side=
2AD⋅BC=212⋅4=248=24
Answer:
The area of the triangle ΔABC is equal to 24 cm².
Exercise 6
Homework:
Given the right triangle ΔABC
The area of the triangle is equal to 38 cm², AC=8
Find the measure of the leg BC
Solution:
We will calculate the length of BC using the formula for calculating the area of a right triangle:
2leg×leg
2AC⋅BC=28⋅BC=38
Multiply the equation by the common denominator
/ ×2
Then divide the equation by the coefficient of BC
8×BC=76 /:8
BC=9.5
Answer:
The length of the leg BC is equal to 9.5 centimeters.

Exercise 7
In front of you, there is a right triangle ΔABC.
Given that BC=6 The length of the leg AB is greater by 3331% than the length of BD.
The area of the triangle ΔADC is greater by 25 than the area of the triangle ΔABD.
Task:
What is the area of the triangle ΔABC?
Solution:
To find the measure of the leg AB we will use the data that its length is greater by 33.33 than the length of BD.
AB=1.33333⋅BD
(100100+10033.33=100133.33=1.333)
AB=1.333⋅6=8
Now we will calculate the area of the triangle ΔABD.
SΔABD=2AB⋅BD=28⋅6=248=24
Answer:
24 cm².
Exercise 8
Homework:
What data in the graph is incorrect?
For the area of the triangle to be 24 cm², what is the data that should replace the error?
Solution:
Explanation: area of the right triangle.
SΔEDF=2ED⋅EF=28⋅6=248=24
According to the formula:
2leg×leg
If the area of the triangle can also be calculated from the formula of:
2side×heightofside
2EG×10=24 /×2
10EG=48 /:10
EG=4.8
Answer:
The incorrect data is EG.
The length of EG should be 4.8 cm.

Examples with solutions for Right angle
Exercise #1
True or false?
One of the angles in a rectangle may be an acute angle.
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
One of the properties of a rectangle is that all its angles are right angles.
Therefore, it is not possible for an angle to be acute, that is, less than 90 degrees.
Answer
False
Exercise #2
True or false?
An acute angle is smaller than a right angle.
Step-by-Step Solution
The definition of an acute angle is an angle that is smaller than 90 degrees.
Since an angle that equals 90 degrees is a right angle, the statement is true.
Answer
True
Exercise #3
If two adjacent angles are not equal to one another, then one of them is obtuse and the other is acute.
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
The answer is correct because the sum of two acute angles will be less than 180 degrees and the sum of two obtuse angles will be greater than 180 degrees
Answer
True
Exercise #4
Which figure depicts a right angle?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
A right angle is equal to 90 degrees.
In diagrams (a) and (c), we can observe that the angle symbol is a symbol representing an angle that equals 90 degrees.
Answer
Exercise #5
Which of the following angles are obtuse?
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
By definition, an obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90 degrees. We can observe that in one drawing there is an angle of 90 degrees and therefore it is not an obtuse angle, the other two angles are less than 90 degrees meaning they are also not obtuse, they are acute angles.
