उत्तर

Base = 5cm, Hypotenuse = 13cm
By Pythagoras theorem,
(perpendicular)2 = (13cm)2 - (5cm)2
(perpendicular)2 = 169cm2 - 25cm2
(perpendicular)2 = 144cm2
(perpendicular)2 = (12cm)2
∴ Perpendicular = 12cm
Area of the triangle 
= 13cm2 x (Base x Perpendicular)

= `(1)/(2) xx 5"cm" xx 12"cm"`
= 30cm2.
