If the vertices of triangle jkl are (0,0), (0,10) and (10, 10), then what is the area of triangle jkl?

observe

JK = K - J = (0,10) - (0,0) = (0,10) so JK has 10 unit length.

KL = L - K = (10,10) - (0,10) = (10,0) so KL has 10 unit length.

if we plot the point, we get a right triangle with K as the right angle, so thea area is

½JK•KL = ½•10•10 = 50

49.10 (2 dp.)

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll need to find 3 lengths, so that means 3 distance formulas. The distance formula is root (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

First, it would be:

J (0,0) K (0,10)

root (0 - 0)^2 + (10 - 0)^2

= 10

Next:

K(0,10) L (10,10)

root (10 - 0)^2 + (10 - 10)^2

= 10

Finally:

L (10,10) J(0,0)

root (0 - 10)^2 + (0 - 10)^2

= 14.14 (2 dp.)

Now that we know it is an isosceles triangle, we can find the height, as it is not given, and cannot be worked out by using the units.

We'll be using Pythagoras theorem after splitting the triangle in half down the middle:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = height

b = 7.07 (half the base)

c = 10

we can rearrange the formula so: c^2 - b^2 = a^2

10^2 - 7.07^2 = h^2

= 7.07

To find the area of the triangle JKL, we use the triangle area formula,

h x b x 1/2:

7.07 x 14.14 x 1/2

= 49.10 (2 dp.)

part 1 answer = 8

part 2 answer = 72

step-by-step explanation:

part 1 explanation = add all of the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you have. so, 200/25 = 8.

part 2 explanation = not gonna lie, this is hard to explain, so just google how to do it.

the square root of what number? if you add that, then someone will probably answer the question.
