An isosceles triangle is placed inside a circle of radius r with its vetices on the boundary of the circle. How should this be accomplished if the area of the triangle is to be maximized?
This problem relates to using derivatives… I have no idea what to do or how to set it up.. can someone [...]
My sister is coming to visit me in Chapel Hill in a few days. She has sort of a thing for Mexicans and she would really love to visit any salsa dancing club or any bars/clubs that latinos generally hang out. I’m new to the area so I don’t know any locals to ask. I [...]
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 10 and a leg of length 7. What is the area of the triangle?
Please tell me how to solve this problem?
Hello!
A=1/2bh
We need to know the base and height.
If we’re given the base and height, we can multiply it and divide by 2 (:
For your question:
We need [...]
The instruction is : use a determinant and the vertices of the triangle to find the area of the triangle.
Vertices: (2,-2), (8,5), (6,-10)
The answer is 26. Does anyone know how to get the answers?
the answer to this problem is 26!!!! How can you get 26 as the answer?!!!!!
Use this formula(it uses the third-order [...]
A seamstress is designing a triangular scarf so that the length of the base of the triangle, in inches, is 7 less than twice the height, h. Express the area of the scarf as a function of the height.
I know the base would be 2h-7
and the height would be h.
But I have no [...]
You are planning to close off a corner of the first quadrant with a line segment 20 units long running from (a,0) to (0,b). Show that the area of the triangle enclosed by the segment is largest when a = b.
The Area of the triangle is A = (1/2)ab
We know that a and b [...]
Show work write a polynomial that represents the area of the triangle.
You should have been able to solve this question on your own! It is a straight forward question.
Let h be the height of the traingle.
So (h + 4) is the base of the traingle.
Area of a traingle is (1/2)*Base*Height
So Area = (1/2)*(h+4)*h
So Area = [...]
I need to know this for school. How do you find the surface area of a triangle pyramid with a each base side of 6 inches and a height of 5.2 inches? If you could respond quickly, that would be great! Thanks a bunch!
find the area of the 3 triangular sides, then find the area [...]
Really confused. If the area of an equilateral triangle is 16 radical 3, how do you find the perimeter? I know you have to use the 30-60-90 triangle theorem, but that’s about it. I’m really confused. Please help!
use the 30-60-90 triangle theorem
the ratio of the shorter leg: hypotenuse:longer leg
= 1:2:√3
Let the [...]
The measures of the sides of right triangle ABC are 7mm, 24mm, and 25mm. If triangle ABC is rotated about its shorter leg, what is the volume and area of the figure formed?
The shape formed is called a cone.
The area of a cone is Pi x radius x length of slope
The Volume of [...]
