Since the triangle DEF is an equilateral triangle and x is the height of this triangle, we can use the following formula for the height of an equilateral triangle:

$h=\frac{l\sqrt[]{3}}{2}$

Where 'l' is the length of the triangle side.

So, using l = 13, we have:

$\begin{gathered} x=\frac{13\cdot\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ x=\frac{13\cdot1.73}{2} \\ x=11.2 \end{gathered}$

So the value of x is 11.2

How do i solve 3x² - 8x + 2 = 0 using quadratic formula?

DENIUS [597]

$3x^2 - 8x + 2 = 0\\ \\a=3 , \ \ b=-8 , \ \ c=2 \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} =\frac{8-\sqrt{ (-8)^2-4 \cdot 3\cdot 2}}{2 \cdot 3} =\frac{8-\sqrt{ 64-24 }}{6} =\\ \\ =\frac{8-\sqrt{40 }}{6} = \frac{ 8-\sqrt{4\cdot 10 } }{6} = \frac{ 8-2\sqrt{ 10 }}{6} = \frac{2 (4-\sqrt{ 10 })}{6} = \frac{ 4-\sqrt{ 10 } }{3}$

$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} =\frac{8+\sqrt{ (-8)^2-4 \cdot 3\cdot 2}}{2 \cdot 3} = \frac{ 4+\sqrt{ 10 } }{3}$
