You need to find the unknown base. Draw a right triangle, with the vertical height "h". By trigonometry, half the base, divided by "h", is equal to tan(alpha/2), where "alpha" is the angle. Therefore, the base "b" is equal to 2*h*tan(alpha/2), and the Excel formula for the area, (1/2)bh, is 0.5*2*h*tan(alpha/2)*h, which can be simplified to:h^2*tan(alpha/2)
Note 1: You must replace "h" and "alpha" with the correct values, or references to the cells that contain those values.
Note 2: Excel assumes that all angles are in radians. If the angles are in degrees, replace alpha with radians(alpha), to convert the angle.
Use the distance formula to calculate the distances between the three vertices. If they are all different, the triangle is scalene, if only two are the same, the triangle is isosceles, and if they are all the same, the triangle is equilateral.
Lengths of: equal side+equal side+base = perimeter
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
square: s^2 rectangle: a*b hexagon: (s^2)*((6.75)^0.5) equilateral: (s^2)*((0.75)^0.5) isosceles: ((a^2)-((b^2)/4))^0.5)*(b/2)
I'm assuming that you mean the area of the triangle. You do not need the entire perimeter. The formula is 1/2 bh. b=base, h=hight
do you want to know the area in a isosceles triangle or what?
To find the circumradius of an isosceles triangle, the formula is:1/8[(a^2/h)+4h]in which h is the height of the triangle and a is the base of the triangle.
Use the distance formula to calculate the distances between the three vertices. If they are all different, the triangle is scalene, if only two are the same, the triangle is isosceles, and if they are all the same, the triangle is equilateral.
A right triangle can be an isosceles triangle, because the definition of an isosceles triangle is a triangle that has 2 sides equal to each other. A 45,45,90 degree triangle has 2 sides equal to each other, while the hypotenuse is different. It cannot be an equilateral triangle because of the formula a^2+b^2=c^2. With this formula, there is no possible way that: a, b, and c can all be equal to each other. To recap: It can be an isosceles triangle, but not an equilateral one.
There are normally no parallelograms within an isosceles triangle unless you put them there yourself.
The are of any triangle is calculated by the formula: Area = 1/2 x Base x Height
The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 13 centimeters long. How long are its sides?
An isosceles triangle can be divided into 4 smaller, identical isosceles triangles. Each of these can then be divided into 4, and each of them ... So, the answer to the question is infinitely many.
Lengths of: equal side+equal side+base = perimeter
Well, if you just bisect the angle at the top to get two equivalent triangles, then you solve for half of the original base from (half base)/(vertical side) = tan(angle). The formula is for the base length is thus 2 × vertical_height × tan(top_angle ÷ 2) Assuming the top angle in degrees is in cell B1 Assuming the vertical height is in cell B2 Assuming you want the base length in cell B3, then in cell B3 put the formula: =2*B2*TAN(B1/2) You will need to format the cell to give the required degree of accuracy (eg 1 dp).
For all triangles: area = 1/2 * base * height
It is very unlikely for a right angle triangle to be isosceles, however it is possible if the angles are 90, 45, and 45 degrees. It does not matter if the triangle is isosceles, this method works for all right triangles. The following formula is your answer, when h=hypotenuse, and a and b are other two sides. a2 + b2 = h2
