We have to calculate the area and perimeter of this triangle.
This is a right triangle because it has a right angle.
We can calculate the area as half the product of the two legs, sides a and b:
[tex]A=\frac{a\cdot b}{2}=\frac{7.9\cdot6}{2}=\frac{47.4}{2}=23.7[/tex]
The perimeter is equal to the sum of the length of the three sides:
[tex]P=a+b+c=7.9+6+9.92=23.82[/tex]
Answer:
Area: 23.7 cm²
Perimeter: 23.82 cm
Type: right triangle.
