would someone mind helping me through a few problems. Ill fan and medal :)

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

are those the equations for the sides of the triangle or angles?

OpenStudy (song_of_the_sole):

i believe they are the equations for the sides of the triangles :)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

bear in mind that's easier to post one at a time more eyes

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well |dw:1464739286379:dw|

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

yes, to find the value of x

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

and then plugin the x value into the equations to find what kind of triangle is it

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap, because, the ARC's touching the inscribed triangle, their measure, adds up to 360 degrees

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

if two sides of the triangle are same then it is a isosceles triangle

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ohh hmmm that part hmmm well, now that you know the value of "x", 15 use that, to check the arc's length, are any of them equal, if two are, then is an isoceles if none are, then scalene :)

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

and if no sides of the triangle is the same then it is a scalene and if all sides are same then it is a equilateral triangle

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap a triangle with sides of different lengths each, is an Scalene as you can see http://www.mathsisfun.com/triangle.html <- here the arc, that an chord(line) will make inside a circle, have some correlation so, if the arc of two chords are equal, that means, the chords are also equal if not, then they're not :)

OpenStudy (hafsahh):

sure
