Drop a perpendicular line from a vertex to opposite side

This forms 2 triangles whose side are in the ratio 2:1:sqrt3

The 2 is equivalent to 8 so the height is sqrt3/2 * 8 = 4 sqrt3 units (answer)

( or 6.93 units to nearest hundredth.)

an equilateral triangle has a square root height if 3 so I'm guessing if you multiply square root of 3 times 8

A triangle has side lengths of 33,56, and 65. Is it a right triangle? Explain.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
U can see if it is a right triangle bu using the pythagorean theorem (or however it is spelled)

a^2 + b^2 = c^2....where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (the largest side)

so lets sub our numbers in and see if they equal
33^2 + 56^2 = 65^2
1089 + 3136 = 4225
4225 = 4225.......correct...so YES, this is a right triangle
