The calculated areas of both are the same instead of using the different formulas that are 43. 5 squared unit.

<h3>What is the area of a regular polygon?</h3>

The area of the polygon is the product of half of the apothem of the triangle and perimeter.

The area of the polygon = \frac{1}{2} \times h \times p

The side of the triangle is 10 units.

Apothem of an equilateral triangle

s = \frac{\sqrt{3} a}{6}

s= \sqrt{3} \times 10/6

s = 2.88

Here, a is the side of the triangle.

Thus the apothem of the triangle is 2.9 units.

The perimeter of the equilateral triangle is equal to the three times the sides.

Perimeter of the equilateral triangle ,

P = 3(10)

P = 30

Therefore, the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 30 units.

The area of the equilateral triangle-

The area of the polygon = \frac{1}{2} \times h \times p

A = 1/2 \times 2.9 \times 30

A = 43.5

Thus the area of the equilateral triangle is 43.5 squared units.

Therefore, The calculated areas of both are the same instead of using the different formulas.

Which statements are true about the residual plot and the equation for the line of best fit for the data? select two options.. t
Nataly [62]

The statements are true about the residual plot and the equation for the line of best fit include:

  • The equation for the line of best fit is not a good approximation for the data because the points have a curved pattern.
  • The residual plot has the pattern of a curve.

<h3>What is Residual plot?</h3>

This shows the residuals on the vertical axis and the independent variable on the horizontal axis.

Since the plot has a curved pattern, the equation for the line of best fit is not a good approximation for the data as the result will be inaccurate.
