Question

A right triangle has a vertex at point A, a height of 4 units, and a base of 5 units.

Use the Polygon tool to draw the triangle.

Each segment on the grid represents 1 unit.

Answer 1

The triangle is shown in the below diagram.

Explanation:

It is given that each segment on the grid represents 1 unit and point A is a vertex of a right angle triangle.

The height of triangle is 4 units, and the base is 5 units.

Let the coordinates of A be (x,y).

There are many possibilities to draw a right angled triangle having height 4, base 5 and vertex at A.

The height of the triangle is 4 units, so the coordinate of another vertex B is (x,y+4).

The base of the triangle is 5 units, so the coordinate of another vertex C is (x+5,y).

The triangle is shown in the below diagram.
