Answer: (a,a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A right isosceles triangle which is placed on the coordinate plane such that one of the legs of the triangle lies along the x-axis and the other leg is parallel to the y-axis.
From the given figure one vertex is on origin(0,0) and second on x -axis as (a,0) .ii.e. one side of the triangle is on the x axis with length 'a' and the side parallel to the y axis should perpendicular to the x axis with length 'a'.(∵ two sides are equal in a right isosceles triangle)
So the coordinates should she assign to the third vertex of the right isosceles triangle is (a,a).[as the point lie above the point (a,0), so its x abscissa should be same]
