LIKE HOW

#

There's a formula for the radius of a circle inscribed inside a right triangle. Do you know it?

obtuse breach
#

Noo can you tell me there was nothing about that in the rulebook :((

lofty beacon
#

Rulebook?

#

I'm pretty sure you need that formula, and I'm pretty sure that it's enough, but this is a weirdly specific question.

obtuse breach
#

but there was no formula given about the radius of a circle inscribed inside a right triangle

lofty beacon
#

If you have a bunch of specific rules that you're supposed to use, you might need to post them so we know what you're working with.

#

OH MY GOD I FINALLY GOT IT

obtuse breach
#

TY FOR THE HELP UR THE BEST

astral grotto
#

what's the answer btw?

#

is it 30?

lofty beacon
#

Well done. I'm curious how you did it? Did you use the formula? Or did you find something more helpful in the book?

#

No need to delete the question. It's a fine question. If you're done with this question, you can just type .solved

#

To Arson. I haven't done the calculation.

#

I guess you could share your answer if you like

astral grotto
#

maybe this is right?

lofty beacon
#

Yeah, that looks good

whose like sidess are equal

#

if you draw a

#

idk whats it called in english

#

a median

#

that splits a side in half

#

ah hell nah im tripping wait

obtuse breach
#

l used the one you sent me in another equation that was a reverse of this one

astral grotto
#

so is your doubt solved right?

#

fell free to ask anything else πŸ˜„

im tryna self study math this summer so l dont turn up to my teacher totally dumbfounded

#

but its kinda hard without someone instructing the ones you dont get :<<<<<

#

I have a couple

#

SO

#

In ABCD Rhombus, angle B is 120 degrees. Find the diagonal between the heights passed from an obtuse angle. If AC is 21 centimeters

#

So something like this

#

BD equals the sides but idk how to figure out its exact length

#

maybe im forgetting somethin

astral grotto
#

have you learnt trigonometry yet?

#

and the fact that rhomubus's diagnals bisect each other at right angle.

#

you can apply trigonometry in triangle ABG (G being the intersection of diagonals).

obtuse breach
#

uhhh

#

l think this is solvable without trigonometry because trigonometry comes in in later chapters

#

U sure its 21 devided by square root 3?

#

the answer is 7😭😭😭

#

Kinda wild

astral grotto
#

how come?
you can see with trig that the answer is 21/sqrt(3)
see triangle ABG (consider G to be center)
angle AGB is 90 as you know diagonal bisect at 90
so tan(60)=(AC/2)/(BD/2)
now BD=AC/tan(60)
that is 21/sqrt(3)

#

it might be a mistake
