If it is isosceles, than the legs are the same. We will call them X. The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 (base * height). But the base and the height are both X. So the area (18) is equal to 1/2 (x * x), or 1/2(x^2). This means that 36 = x^2. Thus, the length of each side is 6 inches. You can check this work by plugging those into the formula for area. You will find that it equals 18.

With a headwind a plane traveled 128 km in 2h. The return trip with a tail wind took 24 min less. Find the air speed of the plan
sertanlavr [38]

Based on the information given, it can be noted that the air speed that the plane has will be 71.1 km per hour.

The number of hours used for the return trip will be:

= 2 hours - 24 minutes.

= 1 hour 36 minutes.

= 1.6 hours.

Therefore, the speed of the air plane will be:

= (128 + 128) / (2 + 1.6)

= 256/3.6.

= 71.1 km per hour.
