\text{It's an isosceles triangle. Therefore}\ m\angle C=m\angle A:\\\\9y-3=69\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\9y=72\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\\boxed{y=8}\\\\\text{We know: The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180}^o.\\\\\text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\m\angle A+m\angle B+m\angle C=180^o\\\\\text{Substitute}\ m\angle A=m\angle C=69^o:\\\\69+(5x+2)+69=180\\\\138+5x+2=180\\\\140+5x=180\qquad\text{subtract 140 from both sides}\\\\5x=40\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\boxed{x=8}

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle <A is equal to <C

<A = <C = 69

<A+ <B +<C = 180  because the 3 angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees.

69 + 5x+2 + 69 = 180

Combine like terms

140+ 5x = 180

Subtract 140 from each side

140-140 +5x =180-140

5x = 40

Divide by 5

5x/5 =40/5

x=8

What is the area of this triangle 12 m 13 m and 5 m is the measurements of the triangle
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

30 m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This  is a right-angled triangle because it obeys the Pythagoras theorem

( 13^2 = 12^2 + 5^2).

So its area = 1/2 * base * height

= 1/2 * 5 * 12

= 30 m^2
