Given:
A regular polygon with three vertices and side 14 cm.
To find:
Area of the regular polygon.
Solution:
We know that, a regular polygon has equal sides and equal interior angles.
The given regular polygon has three equal sides, it means it is an equilateral triangle.
The area of an equilateral triangle is:
Where, a is the side length of the triangle.
Putting , we get
Therefore, the area of given regular polygon is 84.9 cm².
Answer:
The answer to your question is 10.5 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
First triangle
height = x
base = 7 in
Second triangle
height = 12 in
base = 8 in
Process
1.- Use proportions to solve this problem, relates the sides of a triangle with the same sides of the other triangle.
2.- Multiply both sides by 7
3.- Simplify
x =
4.- Result
x = 10.5 in
