yes! I asked for that drawing, because my drawing it is impossible, since a traingle inscribed like mine has to be a right triangle
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
triangle*
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
so A
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
here we can compute the area of our triangle, using the Eron's formula
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
is A correct ?

the half-perimeter of our triangle is:
p=(8+4+5)/2=...?
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
why u neveranswer my question is it A?!
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
14.5
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
please wait a moment I check your answer

DID YOU GET IT
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
sorry, the area of a circle is:
pi*radius^2=3.14*4*4=...?
since the diameter is 8 inches, then radius= 4 inches
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
3.14 .42
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
it is:
\[3.14 \cdot {4^2}\]
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
it is 4^2 not 42
