A picture can help.
The median to the long side divides the isosceles triangle into two right triangles with hypotenuse 10 and short leg 6. Thus the long leg (median of interest) is found by the Pythagorean theorem to be
... √(10² -6²) = √64 = 8
Then the midpoint of the short side is found to be 6 + (6/2) = 9 units to the side and 8/2 = 4 units above the opposite vertex. Hence the square of the length of that median is 9² + 4² = 97.
The sum of squares of interest is
... 8² + 2×97 = 258
Answer:
A= 37 degrees
C= 43 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
So this question looks a lot more complicated than it really is.
Complementary angles are the same.
Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees or in other words a straight line.
If A and B are complementary and B equals 37 degrees, than A is also 37 degrees.
To find C, all we would do is subtract 37 from 180 to find the leftover amount.
180-37=43
So, in conclusion:
A= 37 degrees
C= 43 degrees
Hoped this helped! :D
Comment if you have any further questions!
Answer = d
using the 30 - 60 - 90 triangle theorem
side across from the angle
across from angle 30 is x
across from angle 60 is x rad. 3
across from 90 is 2x
BC is across from angle 60
so BC is the x rad 3
set the given measurement equal to it
x sqrt 3 = 5
÷ sqrt 3 ÷ sqrt 3
x = (5/ sqrt 3)
multiply top and bottom by the radical to get rid of the radical in the bottom
x = (5/ sqrt 3) × (sqrt 3/sqrt 3)
x = 5 sqrt 3/ 3
since side BC is x
BC = 5 sqrt 3/ 3
* Drawing the triangle diagram would help*
Just do 1/8 times 1/8. Hope this helped !!
