Answer:
120 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide the isosceles triangle into two right triangles, each has a leg and hypotenuse of 8 and 17, respectively. You may recognize these numbers as part of the Pythagorean triple (8, 15, 17). That recognition tells you the triangle's height is 15 m, so its area is ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(16 m)(15 m) = 120 m² . . . . triangle area
__
<em>Alternate solutions</em>
Given the three sides, you can find the smallest angle from the Law of Cosines. It will be ...
α = arccos((17² +17² -16²)/(2·17·17)) ≈ 56.144°
Then the area is ...
A = 1/2·ab·sin(C) . . . for triangle with sides a, b, c and opposite angles A, B, C
A = 1/2sin(α)·17·17 = 120 . . . m²
__
Using Heron's formula:
s = (17 +17 +16)/2 = 25
A = √(25(25 -17)(25 -17)(25 -16)) = 5×8×3 = 120 . . . m²
__
If you need to, you can compute the triangle's height from the Pythagorean theorem.
a² +b² = c² . . . . generic Pythagorean theorem equation
8² + h² = 17² . . . with relevant values filled in
h² = 289 -64 = 225
h = √225 = 15
Answer:
PR = 39 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
PR² + PQ² = QR² , that is
PR² + 80² = 89²
PR² + 6400 = 7921 ( subtract 6400 from both sides )
PR² = 1521 ( take the square root of both sides )
PR = 
= 39
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is rise over run. Every 3 units to the left, it rises 1 unit, so the slope is -1/3.
