    The base of an isosceles right triangle is 30 cm. Its area is

    A)  \[225\,c{{m}^{2}}\]           

    B)  \[225\sqrt{3}\,c{{m}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[5\sqrt{2}\,c{{m}^{2}}\]              

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

        As shown in the diagram below, in the isosceles right triangle, the base is bisected by the altitude and BD = AD. \[\therefore AD=15\,cm\] Area\[=\frac{1}{2}\times \]base\[\times \]height         \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 30\times 15=225\,c{{m}^{2}}\]
