The length of a midsegment is half that of the parallel side of the triangle; assuming the midsegment is parallel to the [given] base, then its length is 27 ÷ 2 = 13.5 units.

How can you find the base of a right triangle when you have the height and hypotenuse?

The square of the length of the base plus the square of the length of the height will equal the square of the length of the hypotenuse of your right triangle, per Pythagoras. Square the hypotenuse, subtract the square of the height, and then find the positive square root of that and you'll have the base of your right triangle.


How many degrees should there be in an isosceles triangle?

In the equilateral triangle, all the sides are the same length and all the angles are the same size (congruent). Since the sum of the angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees, we can figure out the measure of the angles of an equilateral triangle.Another Answer:-An isosceles triangle has 2 equal base angles plus another angle and the 3 interior angles add up to 180 degrees.


What is pythagarous theorm?

That for any right angle triangle the length of its hypotenuse when squared is equal to the of length of the base when squared plus the length of the height when squared:- a2+b2 = c2 where a and b are the base and the height of the triangle and c is its hypotenuse.


What is the third side of a triangle if the area is 39squared and the base measures h plus 7 and the height measures h?

The base is 13 units and the height is 6 units so use these dimensions to determine the 3rd side of the triangle.


Can one angle in a right triangle measure 100 degrees?

No, because a triangle's angles can only measure up to 180 degrees. A right angle is 90 degrees, plus another 100 degree angle would be 190 degrees.
