Question

The length of hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is 15 . Find the length of median on its hypotenuse.

Answer 1

Length of hypotenuse $=15$ [Given] Length of median on the hypotenuse $=\frac{1}{2}\times$ length of hypotenuse [In a right angled triangle, the length of the median on the hypotenuse is half the length of the hypotenuse] $=\frac{1}{2}\times 15=7.5$ The length of the median on the hypotenuse is $7.5$ units.
$\therefore$ The length of the median on the hypotenuse is $7.5$ units.
