In ΔXYZ, x = 71 cm, y = 91 cm and z=71 cm. Find the area of ΔXYZ to the nearest square centimeter.
anyanavicka [17]

since its an isoscelies trangle, they probably wanted you to do base times height

make a 71-91/2-x x triangle

where x is the height of the triangle to the base 91 and 71 is the hypothenuse

and then do bh/2

or

use heron's formula

s= 71+91/2

area= \sqrt{(71+91/2)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-91)}

have fun solving that

qaws [65]
The tangent of a given circle is perpendicular to the radius a the point called point if tangency. The radius of the circle is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of tangency. This property is especially useful in cases where the radius that connects to the point of tangency forms a part of right angle because the pythagorean theorem and trigonometry apply to right angles.

Explain how knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum for7+1
ss7ja [257]

Example:
1+2=3
2+1+3

<span>They add up to the same answer no matter where they are placed, therefore knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum of 7+1 (again, because they are the same)  </span>
