The circumcenter of a triangle is the center of a circle who's radius touches all three of the triangle's vertices. The circumcenter can be found using the intersection of 2 or more perpendicular bisectors. A bisector is a line perpendicular from the mid point of a triangle's line segment.To find the circumcenter of a triangle, create two bisectors by following these steps:StepsWith a compass, draw a circle from the first point in the triangle larger then the triangle.Draw the same size circle from point two.Draw the same size circle from point three.Draw a line from the two intersecting points of circle one and two.Draw a line from the two intersecting points of circle two and three.The intersection of the lines from step 4 and 5 will define the circumcenter of the triangle.
Area for any triangle is 1/2 base x height. If you don't know the height (must be perpendicular to the base) then there are trig formulas depending on what is known. Heron's formula is based on knowing the 3 sides (works for any triangle). Step 1 find the semiperimeter, s. s = (a+b+c)/2 Step 2 find the area. A = sq root [s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] If you only know 2 sides and an angle there are other formulas as well.
The step to verify an isosceles triangle is: 1) Find the intersection points of the lines. 2) Find the distance for each intersection points. 3) If 2 of the distance are the same then it is an isosceles triangle.
23.2. Step 1: 5.8*8=46.4 Step 2: 46.4 ÷ 2=23.2 So that is your answer.
First find the area of the top triangle. Multiply that by 2. Then, find the the area of one of the side triangles. Multiply that by 3. Add both numbers and remember to but a 2 on the upper left of the total.
