If the height of a triangle is 4 cm less than its base, and the hypotenuse is 10 cm, find the other sides?

Base = 10 cm, Height = 6 cm

Base = 8 cm, Height = 4 cm

Base = 12 cm, Height = 8 cm

None of these

Let's say the base of the triangle is x. Since the height is 4 less than the base, the height is x - 4.

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

Base² + Height² = Hypotenuse²

x² + (x - 4)² = 10²

Solving for x, we get x = 8.

So, the base is 8 cm and the height is 8 - 4 = 4 cm.
