kjkfgjuljknkj: how do i find the area of an isosceles triangle if all it gives me is the hypotenuse
Hi kj,
Only right angled triangles have an hypotenuse.
So, is it a right angled isosceles triangle?
If so, let the two equal sides be y
then you have
y
2 + y
2 = h
2 2y
2 = h
2 Anyway, keep going, get a value for y
Then you can find the area
