When can the leg of an isosceles triangle be used as the height of the triangle?
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
How do you find height of isosceles triangle if you only know the length of equal sides and the base?
i can
You know base and angles how do I find height of isosceles triangle?
Use the sine rule to work out one of the sides. (a/sina = b/sinb = c/sinc) Then as it is an isosceles triangle the perpendicular dropped from the apex will (a) bisect the base and (b) form a right angle with the base. Now you know one side and the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle and you use Pythagoras (a2 + b2 = c2) to solve the 'other' side of that, which is the height of the isosceles triangle.
What is the formula for the area of an isosceles triangle?
The are of any triangle is calculated by the formula: Area = 1/2 x Base x Height
An A-frame tent is in the shape of an isosceles triangle An isosceles triangle has two equal sides The base of the triangle is 10 ft and the two congruent sides are each 8 ft What is the height?
Use Pythagoras' theorem: 82-52 = 39 and the square root of this is 6.244997998 or 6.245 feet in height to 3 d.p.
