We have the formula A = (h x b) / 2, where A is the area of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle;
So, 32 =(8 x b) / 2;
Then, 64 = 8 x b;
b = 64 ÷ 8;
b = 8 inches;
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a bit sloppy. In higher math courses it would not be permitted. I'll give you the general rule that applies to this question -- sort of.
If you have a triangle that hast angles of 100 50 and 30
The largest side will be opposite the 100 degree angle.
The smallest side will be opposite the 30 degree angle.
So for the question, you are intended to say that CD > AB because CD is opposite a 43 degree angle and AB is opposite a 40 degree angle.
So the answer is Since 43 > 40 then CD>AB
