Question 9

SLPaper 1

A builder is assessing a triangular support structure with side lengths $a=5$ cm, $b=12$ cm, and $c=13$ cm to ensure it meets right-angle specifications.

Prove that △ABC is a right-angled triangle, verifying the relationship between the sides.

[3]

Calculate the area of △ABC to determine the space it occupies.

[2]

Question 10

SLPaper 1

A builder is using a right-angled triangular support structure with sides $a=5$ , $b=12$ , and $c=13$ , where $\theta$ is the angle opposite side $a$ .

Find the values of sinθ, cosθ, and tanθ to understand the structural angles.

[3]

Use the Pythagorean theorem to verify the relationship between the sides, confirming the triangle’s right-angle properties.
