Solution
Length of hypotenuse =15 [Given] Length of median on the hypotenuse =12× length of hypotenuse [In a right angled triangle, the length of the median on the hypotenuse is half the length of the hypotenuse] =12×15=7.5 The length of the median on the hypotenuse is 7.5 units. ∴ The length of the median on the hypotenuse is 7.5 units.
