Describe how you can use a double-angle formula or a half-angle formula to derive the formula for the area of an isosceles triangle. Use a labeled sketch to illustrate your derivation. Then write two examples that show how your formula can be used.

Respuesta :

Answer:

let the equal sides of the triangle be of length "a" Β . let the angle between these two sides be " x Β ". Then drop a perpendicular from the vertex to the base. Β now u have 2 similar triangles Β .the angle between the perpendicular and one of the equal sides is now (x/2) Β . length of perpendicular = a cos(x/2) Β length of base = 2a sin(x/2) Β . area of triangle = (1/2) 2sin(x/2) cos(x/2) a-square Β 

= (1/2) (sin x) a-square
