Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate the Pythagorean Theorem for the triangle.
a² + b² = c²
5² + x² = 10²
25 + x² = 100
Subtract 25 from both sides.
x² = 75
Square root.
x = sqrt(75)
Expand the radical.
x = 5*sqrt(3)
Area of a triangle:
A= (1/2)(bh)
In this problem we are given:
A= 178.5
b= h+4 in
h= UNKNOWN ("h")
Plug in our values into the area equation and solve for "h":
(multiply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2)
(357/21=17)
(solve both inequalities separately)
( a negative height is not possible so, this answer is incorrect.)
Answer: base = (h+4)= (17+ 4) b= 21 in h= 17in
