What is the area of the largest rectangle that can be inscribed in an isosceles triangle with side lengths $8$, $\sqrt{80}$, and

e-lub [12.9K]

First let's solve the general case for an isosceles triangle of base 2 and height k. If the triangle is drawn so the base is on the x-axis and the apex is on the y-axis, the equation for the line containing the right side is
y = -k(x-1)
Then a rectangle with x-dimension w will have an area that is the product of this width and the height y = -k((w/2)-1).
area = w(-k(w/2 -1)) = (-k/2)w² +kw
The derivative of area with respect to w will be zero where the area is a maximum:
d(area)/dw = 0 = -kw +k
w = 1 . . . . . . add kw and divide by k
Using the formula for area, we find
area = 1(-k(1/2-1)) = k/2
This value is 1/2 the total area of the triangle we started with.

If the side lengths of your triangle are 8, √80, and √80, the height will be given by the Pythagorean theorem as
h = √((√80)² - (1/2·8)²) = √(80-16) = 8
Your triangle's area will be
triangle area = (1/2)(8)(8) = 32

The maximum area of the inscribed rectangle will be half this value,
16 square units

How do i find the slope

Elodia [21]

Hi, I'm happy to help!

To find the slope, you need to use the slope formula, where m is the slope:

m= $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Slope means rise over run, or how much the line rises per the amount the line moves forward. This equation shows the movement from the y points to show rise, over the difference in the x points to show run.

Now, to find the slope we insert our values, starting with our second y point:

m= $\frac{2-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Now insert our first y point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Now we insert our second x point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{-3 -x_{1} }$

And finally our first x point:

m= $\frac{2-4 }{-3 -3 }$

Now, we solve:

m= $\frac{-2 }{-6}$

So, our slope is -2/-6, to simplify it, we remove both negatives because they cancel each other out.

m= $\frac{2 }{6}$

Now, we simplify our fraction by dividing the top and bottom by 2:

m= $\frac{1}{3}$

So, our slope is 1/3. This means that for every 1 unit the line rises, it goes to the right 3 units. The y-intercept is where the line hits the y axis.

If the question is asking for slope intercept form for the equation, you use y=mx+b

y represents any y coordinate on your line, m represents your slope (1/3), x represents any x coordinate on your line, and b represents your y-intercept (3).

If you were to insert these values, you would get:

y= $\frac{1}{3}$ x+3

You use this to find what a y coordinate would be so you can draw your line.

For the next equation we do the same thing:

m= $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1 } }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Insert our values:

m= $\frac{4-1}{2-(-4)}$

Get rid of the double negative:

m= $\frac{4-1}{2+4}$

Solve:

m= $\frac{3}{6}$

Simplify:

m= $\frac{1}{2}$

Now that we know our slope, let's plug it in to our slope intercept form equation.

y= $\frac{1}{2}$ x+3

I hope this was helpful! Keep learning! :D
