The area of a triangle is half the base multiplied by the vertical height. It doesn't matter which side we take as the base, so I'll use 6. now the height can never be more than 7, so the maximum area is 0.5 x 6 x 7 = 21 square units.

slightly better:

Area = 0.5 x 7 x 6 sinø where ø is the angle between the sides of length 6 and 7

maximum value of sin ø is 1.

=> maximum area = 0.5 x 6 x 7

= 21

What kind of triangle has angles 50 degrees 65 degrees and 65 degess?

Isosceles Triangle. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides/ angles.


If a scalene triangle has sides from shortest to longest 5 xand 15 what are the possible values for x?

10 < x < 15If a triangle has shortest side x and longest side 15, then x must be greater than 10 (the sum of the two shortest sides of a triangle must always be greater than the largest). If 15 has to be the longest side, then x must be less than 15 (equaling 15 would make the triangle isosceles, not scalene). Therefore, any value for x between 10 and 15 satisfies the statement.***note: If 5 and 15 were 2 sides of a sclane triangle and x could be greater than 15, then the correct answer would be10 < x < 20


Can a right triangle have all equal sides?

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides or, c^2 = a^2 + b^2. Since there is no single value where a = b= c, a right triangle cannot have all equal sides.
