Question



In a right-angled triangle, if its sides are 15cm and 8cm perpendicular to each other, then its perimeter will be

A.

40cm

B.

38 cm

C.

46 cm

D.

50 cm

Correct option is A


Right-angled triangle with sides 15 cm and 8 cm.
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse (the longest side).
Pythagorean theorem: Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²
Hypotenuse² = 15² + 8²
Hypotenuse² = 225 + 64
Hypotenuse² = 289
Hypotenuse = √289
Hypotenuse = 17 cm
Perimeter = Sum of all sides
Perimeter = 15 cm + 8 cm + 17 cm
Perimeter = 40 cm
