The triangle QPR having inscribed triangle STU will allow the artisan to divided his glass piece into four equal triangular pieces.
In order to divide an equilateral triangle into four equal triangular glass pieces, the artisan must;
- Take S as the mid-point on PA, T as the mid-point on PR, and U as the mid-point on QR. Thus, S, T, and U are the three mid-points on each side of the equilateral triangle QPR.
- Now, by joining these mid-points S, T, and U, four equal triangles are made(as shown in the figure).
Since the triangle is equilateral,
PQ = QR = RP
Mid-point divides the lines into equal parts. So,
PS = SQ = QU = UR = RT = TP
Thus, it is proved that
ΔPST = ΔSTU = ΔTUR = ΔQSU

Answer:
The sum of the two numbers is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the counting numbers be x and y.
Then we can write the following equations
x=4y.......1 (one is four times greater )
x(y)=36.....2 (the product of the two)
Putting equation 1 into equation 2, we get
4y(y)=36
Dividing through by 4,we get
Taking square root of both side, we obtain
y=3
Putting the value of y into equation , we get
x=4(3)=12
Hence the numbers are 3 and 12
Therefore the sum of the two numbers is 3+12=15
