.5 is the equivalent decimal for 1/2<span />
First, find the length
L^2+W^2=D^2 )L for length, W for width, D for diagonal)
L^2=25^2-15^2=625-225=400
L=20
A=1/2 of L*W= (1/2)*20*15=150 square inches
Answer:
x=10
m=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are the same since the sides are the same length (isosceles triangle)
55 = 5x+5
Subtract 5
55-5 =5x+5-5
50 = 5x
Divide by 5
50/5 = 5x/5
10=x
The altitude is a perpendicular bisector so
5m-3 = 2m+6
Subtract 2m from each side
5m-3-2m = 2m+6-2m
3m-3 = 6
Add 3 to each side
3m-3 +3 =6+3
3m =9
Divide by 3
3m/3 = 9/3
m =3
