triangle....? how do you determine if a triangle is a right triangle if they just give you the side lengths of each side?
Triangle?? how do you find the measure of one angle of a triangle if the 2 sides on the bottom is given: 60degrees (right) & 80degrees (left).?????
What does the triangle with 3 dots around it mean? I've seen a tattoo that is a triangle with 3 dots around it. It's not made up of dots in a triangular formation, but an actually triangle with a dot close above each flat side of the triangle. Does anyone know what this symbol means?
What are everyday objects that have a right triangle shape in them? Like, a book has 2 right triangles. What are more objects that have right triangles in them? Or objects that are a right triangle? Only RIGHT triangles though. I have a project due tomorrow in math about objects that have right triangles in them, but I can't really think of any except for a book. I then have to find out the area and perimeter, but I can make the numbers up. Please help! Thank you so much! Maybe food too?
How do you find the circumcenter of a triangle on an isosceles triangle? How do you find the circumcenter of a triangle on an isosceles triangle? I know you have to find the equation for two perpendicular lines to any two lines to find the circumcenter for any triangle, but with the isosceles triangle, there's a shortcut or even a different way. Does anyone know?
What is the perimeter of an equilateral triangle inscribed in a? What is the perimeter of an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle of a radius 2? In general, what is the formula for the perimeter (and area) of the triangle with an inscribed circle of a radius r? Moreover, if the circle of radius r is inscribed in the equilateral triangle, what would the triangle's perimeter and area be? I think I could use Heron's formula for the area if the perimeter is derived. I think this could be solved in terms of trig. function.
How to find area of a triangle within a rectangle? Area of a rectangle is 140cm2. Three triangles are drawn within the rectangle. Area of one triangle is 20cm2. How to find the individual areas of other two triangles? Area of a rectangle is 140cm2. Three triangles are drawn within the rectangle. Area of one triangle is 20cm2. How to find the individual areas of other two triangles? Thank you, Abhishek. But tell me how to find out. I need to learn the method.
How do you prove a triangle is a right triangle? I have all three points of the triangle on a grid, but I cannot for the life of me remember how to prove it has a 90 degree angle, and I have a test soon!! Help? The points are on a grid people, which means I do not know any of the angles, so I can't do trig or anything like that.
How to find the area of an isosceles triangle given only the legs? The legs of an isosceles triangle are both 10m, with angle theta in between them. How would you: a. Write the area of the triangle as a function of theta/2 b. Write the area of the triangle as a function of theta and determine the value of theta such that the area is maximum. This question is from HS Math Analysis. Thank you!
How do you find the center of an equilateral triangle? If you have an equilateral triangle with the point coordinates of (x1, y1), (x2, y2), and (x3, y3), I need to find the coordinates of the middle point of the triangle. None of the sides of the triangle are running parrallel with either the x axis or y axis. I really hope someone can help me with this since I have been trying to do it for a couple of hours now :) Thanks in advance. Just to mention, I'm looking to do this to add it to a program I'm making, so I really need some kinda of formula that will let me take the coordinates of the corner points and come out with the coordinates of the center point. :) Cheers.
What is the area of a circle that circumscribes a 45-45-90 triangle if the legs measure 8 cm? What is the area of a circle that circumscribes a 45-45-90 triangle if the legs measure 8 cm? What is the area of a circle inscribed within an isosceles right triangle whose legs measure 8cm? What is the area of the square that can be placed within a 45-45-90 triangle whose legs measure 8cm? Two of the legs rest on the legs of the triangle and one of the other vertices touches the hypotenuse of the triangle?
How do I determine what type of triangle is given by only knowing the side lenghts? I have a Geometry test and I'm confused on what to do. It says...Decide whether the number can represent the side lengths of a triangle. If they can, classify the triangle as right, acute or obtuse. 1. 6, 2,5 2. 5.4, 3.8, 6.5 15. 7,7,4 If someone could answer those questions for me and tell me how they got them I'd really appreciate it.
Is it wrong to consider the Fire Triangle, because already exists the Fire Tetrahedron? Formerly, the Fire Triangle considered only oxigen, fuel and heat, as the three components needed to the fire begins to exist. Today, the Fire Thetrahedron included, as a forth component, the chain reaction, as a component needed in order to exist fire. Is it wrong to talk about and continue using the Fire Triangle, because it is already outdated model? Or it still helps a lot?
Finding the perimeter of a triangle when given the ration and two similar triangles? I know this is easy but , my friend asked to post this up for her and I can't help because I forgot how to answer questions like these T^T ; Thank you (: QUESTION : In two similar triangles , the ration of the lengths of a pair of corresponding sides are 7:8 . If the perimeter of the larger triangle is 32 , find the perimeter of the smaller triangle . Oh please show how to do it step by step . Thank you very much !
How do call the triangle used for tiling? I've seen some tilers using this plastic triangle object for tilling? They use once they put the grout between the tiles. It actually get rid of the excess and make the grout look even and smoother. Some people will also us this on silicon.
What does a triangle with 3 dots around it mean? I've seen a tattoo that is a triangle with 3 dots around it. It's not made up of dots in a triangular formation, but an actually triangle with a dot close above each flat side of the triangle. Does anyone know what this symbol means?
What is the area of the triangle inside the hexagon? Let ABCDEF be a convex hexagon, such that FA = AB, BC = CD, DE = EF, and angle FAB = 2 angle EAC. Suppose that the area of triangle ABC is 25, the area of triangle CDE is 10, the area of triangle EFA is 25, and the area of triangle ACE is x. Find, with proof, all possible values of x.
How to find the base of an Iscoseles triangle? The Altitude to the base of an isosceles triangle measures 30cm. Each of the equal sides is 34cm. I need to find the base of the triangle and the area with this information only. I can find the area, but I need a formula to find the base withm and I can't seem to find one. Help? !
How to solve a right triangle with only the hypotenuse? I need to solve a right triangle for the base and altitude. The only information given is that the hypotenuse is 37 inches. If you could please either give me a formula to use or work me through it, I'd appreciate it! I don't think I can solve using basic trig (SOHCAHTOA) or law of sines or law of cosines. Thanks for your help!
Palmistry : What does the triangle on the mount of Saturn on the right hand means? I have a triangle on my right hand which is on the mount of saturn... What's the difference if the triangle is depent on the fate line and if the triangle is by itself? Does that mean I'm psychic? If the triangle is on the mount of saturn of the left hand but is dependant on the heart line, what does that mean? Does that mean the person is psychic?
What is an obscure triangle and what is an alien triangle? Right now, I am studying in an SAT prep book, and in one of the pretests, it mentions something about an alien and obscure triangle. I never remember hearing anything about those things in Alg 1/2/3/4, Geometry, or Trig. Can anyone tell me what these triangles are? Yes I am sure. Actually, acute and obtuse are the first two options, and obscure and alien are the other two.
How much longer is the perimeter of the new triangle? In an isosceles triangle, the two congruent legs are doubled in length while the base remains the same. How much longer is the perimeter of the new triangle? If the radius of a circle is multiplied by 5, how many times larger is the area of the new circle?
How can the angles in a triangle add up to less than 180 degrees? I have been told there is a time when the angles in a triangle add up to more than 180 and another occasion where it adds up to less than 180? How and when? i found it out: when it is on the outside of a sphere it is equal to slightly more and when it is on the inside it is slightly less.
How to calculate height of a triangle with only one leg and apex angle? I know,I just asked this, but fouled the question up. Sorry, here goes again. I have the length of a triangle's base and the angle at its apex. How do I calculate the height of this triangle. It may be isosceles, right, or anything in between. Adding a line from apex to base is not allowed. Using _only_ the angle at the apex and the length of the base, how to calculate the height of the triangle Gee..first two posters bummed me out. I was afraid of that. What if I turn it around and have the two angles at the base. Can I then get the height without adding a line?
What is triangle math and how do you do it? I have a Gameboy DS and on the Brainage exercise it has one to solve triangle math and I have never heard of this and don't know how to solve the problems....Need explanation.
