Question

Is an isosceles triangle. What is the length of RT? Round to the nearest hundredth.Enter your answer in the box

Answer 1

9.33

Explanation:

Find the diagram attached, to get the length of RT, we will use the pythagoras theorem as shown:

Hyp² = opp²+adj²

Hyp = 11

Adj = 6

Opposite = RT

Substitute into the formula

11² = opp²+6²

Opp² = 11²-6²

Opp² = 121-36

Opp² = 85

Opp = 9.22

Hence the measurel RT to nearest hundredth is 9.22
