What is the area of LMN

Mathematics
1 answer:
irakobra [83]3 years ago
8 0

4 square units.



The easiest way to find this is by looking at the triangle as if NL was the base. In this case PM would be the height. Since a triangle is the same shape even when we move it or rotate it, this is a common strategy to finding areas when the direction is tough for us.



Now that we have this we can measure the lengths of the base and height and use them in the triangle area formula.



Base = 4


Height = 2



Area of a triangle = 1/2bh


Area of a triangle = 1/2(4)(2)


Area of a triangle = 2(2)


Area of a triangle = 4

The area of the base would be found using the area of a triangle formula which is 1/2 x base x height.

The base and height are the two sides perpendicular to each other, which are both 5 inches.

The area of the base = 1/2 x 5 x 5 = 12.5 square inches.

The volume of the triangular prism is the area of the base times the height, which is 4 inches.

Volume of the triangular prism is 12.5 x 4 = 50 cubic inches.

Volume of the triangular prism is 1/3 x area of base x height, which is 7:

Volume of the triangular prism = 1/3 x 12.5 x 7 = 29.17 cubic inches.

Total volume = 29.17 + 50 = 79.17 cubic inches.

Each side of an equilateral triangle measure 11 centimeters. To the nearest tenth of an centimeter, what is the length of the al
Orlov [11]
The length of the altitude is 9.5 cm.

The altitude bisects the base of the equilateral triangle (this is because the two sides emerging from the vertex are equal).  This gives us a right triangle with leg 5.5 and hypotenuse 11.  We use the Pythagorean theorem:

5.5² + h² = 11²
30.25 + h² = 121

Subtract 30.25 from both sides:
30.25 + h² - 30.25 = 121 - 30.25
h² = 90.75

Take the square root of both sides:
√h² = √90.75
h = 9.5
