a) use converse of Pythagoras’ theorem,
a^2 = b^2 + c^2
Since 13^2 = 12^2 +5^2 , by the converse of Pythagoras’ theorem , triangle is a right angled triangle.

b) hypothenuse is the longest side , so since it’s 14.5cm and 13 unit , find 1 unit.
after finding 1 unit , find length b and c.
after finding length b and c (give more sf) , area of triangle is 1/2 (b) (c) , give 3sf.
