Why do the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees?

Mathematics

Elena L [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Let N equal the number of angles in the polygon

Use the formula:

(N x 180)-360 = the sum of all the angles in the polygon

A triangle has 3 angles so:

(3 x 180)-360=180 degrees

(this formula works for any polygon, regardless of the number of it's angles)

Answer:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees because triangles are have the measure and sizes of quadrilaterals, which have an angle measure of 360 degrees. If you divide 360 degrees by 2, you will get 180 degrees.

Find the area of the triangle.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

17.7 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use trig to find the height of the triangle. Then the area is bh/2.

Extend side BC to the right until it is vertically below point A. Draw a segment from point A vertically down until it intersects the extension of side BC. Call the point of intersection D. <D is a right angle.

Use triangle ABD to find the height, AD, of triangle ABC.

For <B of 37 deg, AD is the opposite leg. AB is the hypotenuse. The trig ratio that relates the opposite lefg to the hypotenuse is the sine.

sin B = opp/hyp

sin 37 deg = AD/13.1

AD = 13.1 * sin 37 deg

AD = 7.9

AD is the height of triangle ABC. BC is the base. We can find the area of triangle ABC.

area = bh/2

area = (4.5 cm)(7.9 cm)/2

area = 17.7 cm^2
