How to do this question plz

a) root77

b) 2 root77 / ~17.55 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) by using Pythagorean Theroem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

2^2 + b^2 = 9^2

4 + b^2 = 81

81 - 4 = b^2

77 = b^2

root77 = b

b) 1/2bh is the quation for area thus,

area = 1/2 ( 4 ) ( root77)

area = 2 root77

or area = ~17.55 cm^2

h =

A =

Rules for solving this problem:

Isosceles triangle rules

Because of isosceles being made up of two right triangles; using the pythagorean theorem we can deduce that

Area of a triangle

Step 1 - Find the height

Step 2 - Find the area
