We have an isosceles triangle;
A=opposite angle side a.
B=opposite angle side b.
C=opposite angle side c.

A=B
Method 1:

We can divide the isosceles triangle in two right triangles,
hypotenuse=7
side=9/2=4.5

B=A=arccossine (4.5/7)=49.994799...º≈50º
C/2=90º-50º=40º  ⇒ C=2*40º=80º

Answer:
a=7;  A=50º
b=7;  B=50º
<span>c=9;  C=80º

Method 2:
Law of cosines:
a²=b²+c²-2bcCosA  ⇒CosA=(a²-b²-c²)/(-2bc)
CosA=(49-49-81) / (-126)=0.642857
A=arco cos (81/126)≈50º

B=A=50º

A+B+C=180º
50º+50º+C=180º
C=180º-100º
C=80º

Answer:

</span>a=7;  A=50º
b=7;  B=50º
<span>c=9;  C=80º</span>

What is 66 rounded to nearest hundredth
Alchen [17]
Welp, looking at the number: 66

......

The second digit "6" is up to or more than 5.

...............

So, we can clearly round it up.

.....................

In this case, we are rounding to the nearest hundredth.

.............................

Hm, 100 is pretty close to 66. 

..................................

We can now say that the nearest hundredth is 100.
