Can anyone help?
3 swans and 5 toucans
Here is the pic
Start by drawing a diagram.
hmm...................
@noelgreco I dont exactly know where to put those numbers do you know how to draw
@Nnesha do you know?
hmmm ok.. .so, what section is this meant to cover?
are you expected to use say.... Heron's formula? or just a plain special angles?
hmmmm offline
hmm so much for that
The general equation for the area of a triangle is A=1/2BH With the isosceles triangle, lets treat it as 2 right triangles. If that is the case then the area is exactly 1/2 what the intial area is. 110/2=55 We know that if the base is 14 feet, and we are trying to split it into two triangles, then the base =7ft So, using the formula A=.5BH 55=.5BH 55=(.5)(7)(H) H=110/7 ft Using Pythagorean Theorem to find the "legs" of the triangle, C^2=A^2+B^2 C^2=(7)^2+(110/7)^2 C=17.2 ft This is the length of the legs and our final answer.
