Question

the height of an isosceles triangle is 6cm the perimeter of the triangle is36 cm. then the area of the triangle is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since perimeter = 36 and base is 16. Each side is 10 (10+10+16 = 36 perimeter)

In an isoceles triangle, the perpendicular from the 3rd point of the triangle on the base divides the base.

So half of base and height and one side becomes a right triangle

Now using pythagoras theorem

h^2 = side^2 - (base/2)^2

= 100 - 64 = 36

h = 6

Area of traiangle = 1/2 * b * h

= 1/2 * 16 * 6

= 48 sq cm.

follow me

Answer 2

Answer:

• the answer is 48 sq cm

Hope it helps you dude
