To construct a circle that circumscribes to a triangle, you would have to construct a circle that where all vertices of the triangle are on the circle. To do this you would have to construct the perpendicular bisectors of each side with your compass and straight edge. Comment on this answer if you are unsure of how to construct a perpendicular bisect (it's a long fundamental process to describe, and I wouldn't want to lecture you one something you already know). Once you have done so, set your compass point on the point where all perpendicular bisectors intersect (they should intersect in ONE point, if not you will have to redo it). Set your other compass lead on one of the vertices and spin away! If you have done this correctly, you should hit all three vertices when spinning your compass. Hope this helps!
Fun fact: the point where all perpendicular bisectors intersect is called the circumcenter
To obtain the total surface we have to calculate the surface of the 4 triangles and add up the areas (remember that the area of a triangle is (b*h)/2 , b is the base, h is the height ).
We will caculate first the area of the base triangle for that we considerer the fact that it is an equilateral triangle with sides of lenght 6 cm, now we calculate the height, I am going to draw please wait a moment
using the pythagorean theorem we have that
![\begin{gathered} h^2=6^2cm^2-3^2\operatorname{cm}=27cm^2 \\ h=\text{ }\sqrt[]{27\text{ }}cm \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20h%5E2%3D6%5E2cm%5E2-3%5E2%5Coperatorname%7Bcm%7D%3D27cm%5E2%20%5C%5C%20h%3D%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B27%5Ctext%7B%20%7D%7Dcm%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Then, the area of the triangle is 6*h/2 = 3h = 15.59 cm^2.
Now we calculate the area of the other 3 triangles, notice that those triangles have the same base and height so we will calculate for one of them and multiply by 3. From the image we know that the height is 15cm and the base is 6 cm so the area is 45cm^2, and 45*3 cm^2 = 135cm^2.
Finally we add up all the areas:
If the dolphins are fed half a bucket of fish then half of that would be a quarter, therefore the sea otters are fed 1/4 of a bucket.

Step-by-step explanation:
If your looking looking for the y-intercept its y=-3
I don't really understand what you are asking though....
