Answer: the answer is 16
Step-by-step- explanation:
Since the two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third we can take the sum of two smallest sides and add them together to equal 92. Meaning the length of the longest side MUST BE 91 feet so the amount of the remaining rope would equal to 107-91 and that’s where we get 16
Area of the triangle = (1/2)*base*height
For right triangle base and height can be legs.
We have one leg = 5 ft. (Lets think it is a base.)
We need to find the other leg.
We are going to use Pythagorean theorem.
5² + b²=13²
b²=144
b=12 (It is going to be our height.)
Area of the triangle = (1/2)*5*12= 30 ft²
Area of the triangle = 30 ft²
