How do you calculate the height of a non right triangle?
The answer depends on what information you do have about it.
How do you calculate the height of a non-right triangle?
To locate the height of a non-right triangle, you may need to extend the base of a triangle. Then pick one corner and draw a line perpendicular to the extended base. This line you just drew is the height. Finding this height will depend on what triangle dimensions you are given, so the answer will vary. Note: the extended part does not count as the actual base. It is only used to help you find the height of a triangle.
What is the area of a right triangle that is Cm high and has a base that is 7cm long?

How do you find the perimeter of a isoscles triangle all you know is the base and height?
-- Imagine what you have if you slice the triangle in half along the height ...-- You have a right triangle. One side of it is 1/2 of the base, and one side isthe height.-- The slanting side is the hypotenuse of the right triangle, and knowing whatyou know about right triangles, you can calculate its length.-- Once you do that, you have the lengths of all three sides of the original triangle,and you can calculate the perimeter.
