Find the area and perimeter. the area is and the perimeter is

Area: 6a^2

Perimeter: 12a^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, use the formula A=1/2 b*h. The base is 3a^2 and the height is 4a^2.

A= 1/2 (3a^2)(4a^2)

A = 1/2 (12a^4)

A = 6a^4

To find the perimeter of the triangle, add each of the sides of the triangle. The third side, the hypotenuse, can be found using Pythagorean theorem.

Now add each of the sides: 3a^2 + 4a^2 +5a^2 = 12a^2

check the picture below.

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.
