For 3g, divide the triangle into two right triangles. Such that a=10 and b=a/2
Height(base/2) for the area of one of the two triangles
Then multiply it by 2
languid kraken
For 3h, use sin to find the hypotenuse and then find the remaining side with Pythagorean theorem

nah nah
its slow
do 1/2 ab sin c
you have to use trig
languid kraken
3g doesn’t need trigonometry
Okay i know it says it
H=(7.6-1.2)/sin(31)
The side in question for 3h will be
\sqrt{(\frac{7.6-1.2}{\sin(31)})^2-(7.6-1.2)^2}

3g doesn’t need trigonometry
he does
bruh
so its
1/2 * 10mm * 10mm * sin(60)
i know sin60 is
root3/2
so its
50mm * root3/2
so its 50root3/2
which cancels
to 25root3
@gloomy kiln understand?
rip
25root3
not root2
kk
its a simple formula to remember ngl

Can be found purely with Pythagorean theorem and 1/2hb
\begin{align}
5^2+b^2=10^2\\
b=\sqrt(75)\\
2\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot5\cdot\sqrt(75)\\
5\cdot5\cdot\sqrt(3)\\
25\sqrt(3)
\end{align}

BUT IT ASKED TO USE TRIGONOMETRY
OH MY FUCKING DAYS BRO
READ THE QUESTION
IT SAYS USE TRIGONOMETRY
golden vault
SO ITS 1/2 ab sinC

READ THE QUESTION
I said I acknowledge it says to use trigonometry but I was showing you that it’s not necessary. It sounded before like you were saying it was the only way
dark rover
OH MY FUCKING DAYS BRO
you need to chill
also don't give the answer directly
moreover M's second answer is implicitly trigonometry as it leverages the properties of a right triangle

i know but the question asks to use trig 😭😭😭
im gonna start tweaking istg
dark rover
i know but the question asks to use trig 😭😭😭
just because M doesn't say "sin" in their answer doesn't mean they aren't using trigonometry, as I've justified, you need a right triangle in any case so both approaches are fine
you don't need to be rude about it
golden vault
just because M doesn't say "sin" in their answer doesn't mean they aren't using ...
No i understand rion
but the problem is that theyre using pythagoras when the question CLEARLY states to use trig
dark rover
If you get it, then let's stop it here
golden vault
yeah fair
dark rover
nvm you didn't get it
whatever, I cba to explain why M's answer is valid for the third time
golden vault
whatever, I cba to explain why M's answer is valid for the third time
no i get it now
but WHY tho
dark rover
I'm not going to explain a third time, so just take it or leave it
