I think it is always true. I am not sure but I hope I'm right
The 3rd one. (where the round part of the graph is at 0, 0) because that is where the y axis meets
Answer:
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides being equal (also two equal base angles).
Let us assume the length of the two equal sides to be x meters each, and the length of the unequal side to be y meter. Since the perimeter of the triangle is 90 m, it can be expressed as:
x + x + y = 90
2x + y = 90
But the length of the equal side is three fourth of the unequal side, i.e x = 3/4y
Therefore:
2(3/4y) + y = 90
3/2y + y = 90
2.5y = 90
y = 90/2.5
y = 36 meters
Also x = 3/4 * 36 = 27 meters
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
The height of the building to the nearest tenth of a meter is; 13 m
<h3>How to make use of Cosine Rule?</h3>
The slant line from the top of Trevor's head to the base of the building is gotten from Pythagoras theorem;
15/x = sin 36°
x = 15/sin 36
x = 25.52 m
Angle between that slant line and base of building is;
90 - tan⁻¹(1.5/14) = θ
θ = 83.88°
Remaining angle of the bigger triangle is;
180 - (36 + 83.88) = 60.12°
Thus, if the height of the building is h, then;
h/sin 36 = 25.52/sin 60.12
h = 13 m
