∙ 13y agoThe formula for the area (A) of any triangle is A = 1/2base x altitude (or height).
The area of a right angled triangle with base = 8 and altitude = 28 is therefore :-
A = 1/2 x 8 x 28 = 112 sq inches

The hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 12 inches and 16 inches is: 20 inches.
Lets work it out:- If the legs are 12 and 16 inches, then a rectangle of that size would be 192 square inches in area. As the the diagonal of the rectangle makes two equal triangles (of legs 12 and 16 inches), the area of one of these is half the area of the triangle - 192/2 = 96 square inches.
Providing that it is a right angle triangle its area is about 73 square inches. Solved by using Pythagoras and 1/2*base*height = area
The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 6 and 8 inches is: 10 inches.
