1.The isosceles triangle has sides of length 14, y, y
2. According to the "triangle inequality" :
y+y>14
2y>14
y>14/2=7
(y is greater than 7)
3. Remark, check the figures:
the side lengths cannot be less than (neither equal to 7), because we cannot get a triangle in that case, check picture 2
In picture 1 wee see that the side lengths can be as large as we want. We can erect an altitude, as high as we want. Pick a point on the altitude, and join it to the endpoints of the base, and we get an isosceles triangle with base equal to 14.
There are 11 parts of fruit: 4-strawberry, 3- grape, 2, cherry, 1- apple, 1-orange
4/11 from the entine quantity of fruits- strawberry
3/11-grapes
2/11- cherries
1/11- apples
1/11- oranges } ⇒ the quantity of oranges and apples are equal
The biggest part of the fruit- 4/11 - are strawberries
4/11>3/11>2/11>1/11
the smallest part of the fruit- apples and oranges
<span>83.03 acres.
To solve this, first calculate how many square feet that central park covers. Just multiply its length and width. So
1.37x10^4 * 2.64x10^2 = 3.6168x10^6
Now divide its area in square feet by the number of square feet in an acre.
3.6168x10^6 / 4.356x10^4 = 8.303x10^1 = 83.03</span>
Answer:
In isosceles triangle ABC, BM is the median to the base AC and Point D is on BM as shown below in the figure;
Median of a triangle states that a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposing side, bisecting it
M is the median of AC
then by definition;
AM = MC ......[1]
In ΔAMD and ΔDMC
AM = MC [side] [By [1]]
[Angle]
DM =DM [Common side]
Side-Angle-Side postulate(SAS) states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.
Then, by SAS,
CPCT stands for Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent
By CPCT,
[Corresponding side] ......[2]
In ΔABD and ΔCBD
AB = BC [Side] [By definition of isosceles triangle]
BD= BD [common side]
AD = DC [Side] [by [2]]
Side-Side-Side(SSS) postulate states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Therefore, by SSS theorem,
