The formula can't even be written unless you know either

-- the size of one of the other sides of the triangle, and the size

of the angles at both ends of it,

or else

-- the size of both other sides of the triangle, and the size of the

angle between them.

Find the area of an isosceles triangle that has two sides 34cm long and the base is 32cm long with a height of 30cm Show your work and explain the formula you used?

there is no specific formula for isos triangle..... 1/2bh..which means 1/2xbasexheight is the formula for all types of triangles.....so if we take isos as a triangle we can use this formula to calculate the area of the figure!

How do you work out the area of a triangle inside a square?

If you want to figure out just the area of the triangle, the formula is base times height divided by 2. It does not matter if it is inside a square, as long as you have the legnths of all they sides you need to calculate the area of that triangle. If you do not, It would be very difficult.

What is the length of the sides of an isosceles triangle?

The length of the sides of an isosceles triangle are not set in stone. An isosceles triangle is defined as a triangle with at least two congruent sides. Equilateral triangles; that is, triangles in which all sides are of equal length are also considered to be isosceles triangles.

How do you calculate a hypotenuse?

You calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle using the following formula : a squared + b squared = c squared. (C is hypotenuse and A and B are legs) If the other sides are both one inch long, then the hypotenuse is the square root of 2.
