<span>If this is an isosceles triangle, then it has two 45 degree angles corresponding to two legs of equal length. Orient the base of this triangle so that it's horizontal, and represent its length by b. Let h represent the height of the triangle. Then the area of this right triangle is 50 square inches = (1/2)(b)(h), or A = (b/2)h = 50 in^2.
Due to the 45 degree angles, the height of this triangle is equal to half the base, or h = b/2. Thus, (b/2)h = 50 becomes (b/2)(b/2) = 50, or b^2=200. Thus, b = 10sqrt(2), and h=(1/2)(10 sqrt(2)), or h = 5sqrt(2).
The length of one of the legs is the sqrt of [5sqrt(2)]^2+[5sqrt(2)]^2, or
sqrt(25(2)+25(2)) = sqrt(100) = 10.

Answer:
21 windows
Step-by-step explanation:
colleen's family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and Colleen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?
Answer: Let the number of window Colleen father would paint be x while that of her mother be y. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father x = 2y
Let the number of windows each painted by Colleen and her 2 brothers be z since they would paint the same number of windows. The total number of windows to be painted = 2y + y + z + z + z = 3y + 3z = 3(y + z).
Then number of windows needed to be painted by Colleen and her mother is given as z + y. Since Colleen painted 7 windows as her share and her mother share i.e. y + z = 7
Therefore the total number of windows = 3(y + z) = 3(7) = 21 windows
The area is 128 inches squared.
Step-by-step explanation:
12 times 8 is 96, plus the two side triangles (32 when combined) is 128.
