Find out what the total amount of a Triangle is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The pythagorean theorem will help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C^2=A^2+B^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here let me sum it up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So\[c = \sqrt{A ^{2}+B ^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First work out the total of all the angles that are given and make this total equal 180 -- since angles in a triangle add up to 180. Once you have the equation, solve the equation to give the value of x! In the example shown the 3 angles in the triangle are 3x + 20, x + 10 and x -5.

I got 89

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Dont forget the square root!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9.43398113206

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rounded to the nearest tenth would be 9.4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would
