draw an equilateral triangle draw the height from the top vertex to the bottom horizontal side this line segment divides the triangle into two congruent right triangles this line segment also divides the bottom horizontal side into two congruent line segments, each 5 units in length the height is the longer leg of the right triangles taking one right triangle... the hypotenuse is 10 and the shorter leg is 5 using the Pythagorean Theorem 102=h2+52 100=h2+25 100-25=h2 75=h2 h=?75=?25*3=5?3 A=(1/2)(10)(5?3) A=(5)(5?3) A=25?3 A=25*1.732 A=43.3 square units read less

Using the formula area = root of (s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) We get area in this case = root of (15 x 5 x 5 x 5) = 5 x 5 x root 3 = 25 x 1.732 = 43.3 cm^2

Find the product: (x – 3y) (x + 3y) (x2 + 9y2)
The product of the first two terms is x^2 - 9y^2. The third term is x^2 + 9y^2 So the final product is x^4 - 81y^4

How many triangles can be drawn having its angles as 45°, 64° and 72°? Give reason for your answer.
Zero triangles.. we cant draw triangle with these angles. but the given angles are 45,64.72. if we add those we get 45+64+72=181. so we cannot draw triangle.

Solve : x + y = 18; y + z = 12; z + x = 16
Let x+y=18---(1), y+z=12---(2),z+x=16---(3) Solving (2)-(3) we get y+z-z-x=12-16 y-x=-4--(4) Solving (4)+(5) we get x+y+y-x=18-4 2y=14 y=14/2=7 Substitute y value in (1) x+7=18 x=18-7=11 Substitute x value in (3) z+11=16 z=16-11=5 x=11, y=7, z=5
