The area is 73. You have to find the area of both triangles using the formula a = 1/2bh. The shaded triangle is 108 square yards but because another triangle is cut out of it, we need to subtract the area of the white triangle from the shaded triangle. The area of the white triangle is 35. So now we have 108-35 =73. That’s how i got 73.
Answer: scalene and obtuse
Justification:
You can find the angles using the law of cosine:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcos(γ)
=> cos(γ) = [a^2 + b^2 - c^2] / (2ab)
1) cos(γ) = [10^2 + 11^2 - 15^2] / (2*10*11) = - 0.0181818
=> γ = arccos(-0.0181818} ≈ 91°
2) cos(α) = [b^2 + c^2 - a^2 ] / 2bc = [11^2 + 15^2 - 10^2] / (2*11*15] = 0.7454545
=> α = arccos(0.7454545) ≈ 41.8°
3) cos(β) = [a^2 + c^2 - b^2] / (2ac) = [10^2 + 15^2 - 11^2] /(2*10*15) = 0.68
=> β = arccos(0.68) ≈ 47.2°
4) Verification: 91° + 41.8° + 47.2° = 180°
5) The triangles with the three different sides are called scalenes (which you can tell with only the measures of the sides).
6) The triangles with one angle greater than 90° are called obtuse.
So, the triangle is scalene and obtuse.
