So you have a baseline, a height, and two equal angles since the height is at the center of the baseline. This gives you two identical right triangles. The sum of all angles in a triangle equals 180°, and for right triangles, we have Pythagoras: ##h^2+(b/2)^2=c^2## where ##h## is the height and ##b## the baseline.LightningInAJar said:I couldn't find a triangle calculator that input triangle height. Just angles and outer length.
I have a triangle with 46 at one length and a line from center of length going to opposite corner that is 35. How can I calculate all angles from that? Sorry. I dumb.
So post #2 contains all you need to know. You have to show us some effort from your side.LightningInAJar said:35 was the distance line from the 46 line to opposite side.
That doesn't exactly answer my question. We must be very precise in this. If the 46-line is flat on the ground, is the 35 the height of the vertex opposite to the 46-line? Or is it a tilted distance from the center of the 46-line to the opposite vertex? You might want to show a drawing of the situation.LightningInAJar said:35 was the distance line from the 46 line to opposite side.

We're 8 posts into this thread because of the poor description, and we still don't know what the triangle looks like. A picture with the sides labelled with their lengths and the known angles labelled would have been very helpful.symbolipoint said:DO YOU HAVE A PICTURE? WILL YOU DESCRIBE YOUR TRIANGLE PRECISELY?
Depends how you mean the term distance here. The Euclidean distance between two points or the line that connects the two points and is perpendicular to the side of length 46?LightningInAJar said:35 was the distance line from the 46 line to opposite side.
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This is written as a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse. This theorem is used to calculate missing side lengths in a right triangle.
To calculate the missing angle in a triangle, you can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. So, if you know the measurements of two angles, you can subtract their sum from 180 to find the missing angle.
An acute triangle has all angles measuring less than 90 degrees, an obtuse triangle has one angle measuring more than 90 degrees, and a right triangle has one angle measuring exactly 90 degrees.
To find the length of a side in a triangle using trigonometric ratios, you can use the sine, cosine, or tangent function. For example, if you know the measure of an angle and the length of the side opposite that angle, you can use the sine function to find the length of the hypotenuse.
The Law of Sines is used to find missing angles or sides in a triangle when you know the measurements of two angles and one side, or two sides and one angle. The Law of Cosines is used to find missing sides or angles when you know the measurements of all three sides or two sides and the included angle. The Law of Cosines is also used for non-right triangles, while the Law of Sines is only used for right triangles.
