How do you work out the isosceles triangle when they only give you the exterior size of 92?

State the question better.


Does a triangle that has congruent sides and angles is an isosceles right triangle?

Not necessarily. The details are quite vague here since the question doesn't give the specific number of sides and angles.A triangle that has all congruent angles and sides is called an equilateral triangle.A triangle that has two congruent angles and two congruent sides is called an isosceles triangle.


What is the name of a shape with only two equal sides?

There is no specific name for any shape that has only two equal sides. How many other sides does it have? Are these other sides straight of curved? You have chosen not to provide any of this information and so I regret that it is impossible to give a more useful answer.Another Answer:-It could be an isosceles triangle that you have in mind.


Is the parallelograms the reflection symmetry?

A parallelogram normally has no lines of symmetry unless it is in the shape of a rectangle which will then give it 2 lines of symmetry


How do you find the other sides of a right angled isosceles triangle when you know the hypotenuse?

Square the hypotenuse's length, halve this number and then square root the remaining number. This is the length of the other two sides. Explanation: Since this is a right angled isosceles triangle, the two other sides must be equal in length. Pythagoras theorem a2+b2=c2 (c is the hypotenuse). To get c2 we must square the hypotenuse. Since the two other sides are equal in length, a and b must be the same. Therefore a2 and b2 are both halves of c2. Halving c2 will give you both a2 and b2. Now, we just sqaure root a2 or b2 to get the length of these sides.

Can an isosceles triangle be a right angle triangle?

no an isosceles triangle can not be a right angle triangle because with an isosceles the two sides meet at a point creating a vertisce which a right angle triwngle does not have hope this helpsImproved Answer:-Yes it can providing the interior angles are 90 45 45 degrees which will give a triangle of two equal sides making it both an isosceles triangle and a right angle triangle.

What is the Surface area of isosceles triangle?

Ok to find the area of an isosceles triangle: Find the height first, to do this use this formula: Height = Square root ( one side square - half the base square) Now that you have the height you can calculate the area by the use of this formula: Area = (1/2)(base)(height) This will give you the surface area of an isosceles triangle. Lets do an example: You have a triangle that has two sides that measure 24 meters and a base of 20 meters. Using the formula above for height you will get a height of 21.8 meters Now use the formula above to find the area and it will give you an area of 218 meters square


What formula do you use to find the median in an isosceles triangle?

It is not possible to answer the question since it is hopelessly underspecified and does not provide enough information.what information about the triangle is known? All three side lengths, base angle and base side, base angle and leg, apex angle and base, apex angle and leg? These could influence the form of the answer.is the information about the triangle in terms of analytical geometry (coordinates of points and equations of lines) or in some other form?which median? The median from the apex or one of the isosceles medians?what aspect of the median is the formula supposed to give? Its length, equation?

What is a half angle?

A half angle is just what it sound like; it's half the measure of an angle. If you have an angle of 30 degrees, the half angle is 15 degrees. Simple and easy. Where it comes in handy is in construction of something like, say, an isosceles triangle inside a circle. If you have the two equal equal angles, you can find the third angle. Then you can construct it by drawing a chord across the circle through its diameter, then using the half angle to draw in one side. Repeating the process on the other side of the diameter will give you the other side of the triangle. By drawing in a chord connecting the points where the other two chords (drawn off the half angles on either side of the diameter) intersect the circle, you'll have completed the construction of the isosceles triangle.
