做AH⊥BC交BC于H;
设BC=2a;AH=h;
∵AB=AC=13;
∴BH=CH=1/2BC=a;
∴AB^2=AH^2+BH^2=h^2+a^2;
h^2+a^2=13^2=169----(1)
S△ABC=1/2BC*AH=1/2*2a*h=ah;
∴ah=60;----(2);
(1)-2*(2)得:
h^2+a^2-2ah=(h-a)^2=169-2*60=49;
h-a=7;(-7舍去);-----(3)
(1)+2*(2);
(a+h)^2=169+2*60=289;
a+h=17(-17舍去)----(4)
由(3)(4)得:
a=5,h=12
tanC=h/a=12/5=2.4
