Given:
Base of a right triangle = 7 in
Height of a right triangle = a
Hypotenuse = 16 in
To find:
The length of side a.
Solution:
Using Pythagoras theorem:
Subtract 49 from both sides.
Taking square root on both sides, we get
a = 14.4
The length of side a is 14.4 in.
Answer:
m∠EGF = 65° and m∠CGF = 115°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
∠EFG = 50°
EF = FG
Solution,
In ΔEFG m∠EFG = 50° and EF = FG.
Since triangle is an isosceles triangle hence their base angles are always equal.
∴
Let the measure of ∠EGF be x.
∴
Now by angle Sum property which states "The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°."
m∠EFG + m∠FEG + ∠EGF = 180
Hence
m∠EGF = 65°
Also 'The sum of angles that are formed on a straight line is equal to 180°."
m∠EGF + m∠CGF = 180°
65° + m∠CGF = 180°
m∠CGF = 180° - 65° = 115°
Hence m∠EGF = 65° m∠CGF = 115°
