  • Question
  • If the sides of a right triangle are x, x + 1 and x ? 1, then the hypotenuse :


  • Options
  • A. 5
  • B. 4
  • C. 1
  • D. 0

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    From given figure , we have
    Let, (x + 1) be the hypotenuse and perpendicular = x - 1 , base = x.
    By pythagoras theorem ,
    ? (x + 1)2 = x2 + (x + 1)2 ? x = 4
    ? Hypotenuse = 4 + 1 = 5
