To find the area of a triangle you need the formula (base*height)/2.  We know the base is 25in however we need to find the height to have everything for the formula. If you draw a picture of this equilateral triangle so the bottom is a flat side, the height goes straight up the middle, splitting the triangle into two equal pieces.  However, to find the height, you have to use Pythagoras's theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2).  c is the hypotenuse so that is the 25in, a is half the width of the base, 12.5in, and b is what you are looking for.  When solved, b becomes about 21.65, or if you have to be exact- sqrt{468.75}.  Then plug this in for the height in the original equation.
(25*sqrt{468.75})/2≈270.63 in^2

If the class contains 11 boys and 14 girls, what is the probability of calling on a girl?
Ronch [10]

Answer: P (girl) = 14 / 25

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of probability.  

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur.  

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

Number of boys = 11

Number of girls = 14

Total number of people = 11 + 14 = 25

P (girl) = Favorable / Total (refer to the attachment)

P (girl) = 14 / 25

Hope this helps!! :)
