Question

find the area of a triangle with two sides that are 30 cm and a base of 26cm.

Answer 1

u r wrong

Answer 2

wrong again. the answer is 351.48 cm

Answer 3

To find the area of a triangle with two sides and a base given, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:

Area = 1/2 * base * height

Let's first find the height of the triangle using the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the two sides given (30 cm each) and c is the base (26 cm).

30^2 + 30^2 = h^2

900 + 900 = h^2

1800 = h^2

h = √1800 = 42.43 cm

Now, we can find the area of the triangle:

Area = 1/2 * 26 cm * 42.43 cm
Area = 13 * 42.43
Area = 549.60 cm^2

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 549.60 square centimeters.

Answer 4

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it:

Given:
Side 1 = 30 cm
Side 2 = 30 cm
Base = 26 cm

To find the area of the triangle, we can use Heron's formula:

s = (a + b + c) / 2
where s is the semi-perimeter, a and b are the sides, and c is the base.

s = (30 + 30 + 26) / 2
s = 86 / 2
s = 43

Area = √[s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c)]
Area = √[43 * (43 - 30) * (43 - 30) * (43 - 26)]
Area = √[43 * 13 * 13 * 17]
Area = √(33947)
Area ≈ 184.26 cm^2

Therefore, the area of the triangle is approximately 184.26 square centimeters. Thank you for pointing out the error.

Answer 5

Apologies for the mistake. Let's calculate the area of the triangle again:

Given:
Side 1 = 30 cm
Side 2 = 30 cm
Base = 26 cm

First, calculate the semi-perimeter:

s = (30 + 30 + 26) / 2
s = 43

Now, calculate the area using Heron's formula:

Area = √[s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c)]
Area = √[43 * (43 - 30) * (43 - 30) * (43 - 26)]
Area = √[43 * 13 * 13 * 17]
Area = √(35326)
Area ≈ 188.16 cm^2

Therefore, the area of the triangle with two sides of 30 cm and a base of 26 cm is approximately 188.16 square centimeters. Thank you for your patience.
