A circle has a radius of 6 in. The circumscribed equilateral triangle will have an area of:

1 answer:

6 0

Draw a circle and locate three points on the circumference equal to 0 degrees, 120 degrees and 240 degrees.
draw a line from the 0 degree point to the 120 degree point,
draw a line from the 120 degree point to the 240 degree point.
draw a line from the 240 degree point to the 0 degree point

You have now drawn the equilateral triangle and finding the length of the chord formed by any of the sides you will have the length of each of the three sides
The area is then = (L^2 x 3^0.5)/4 = 0.4333 x L^2, where L is the length of one of the sides.gatorbait · 5 years ago

To allocate scarce goods and resources, a market economy uses price rationing. This means that individuals will get the goods and services if they have the ability to pay. Basically, if you don't have money for it you can't get it. Unlike this is for example a purely communist government where people would in theory get things based on how much they need it and not on how much they can pay for.
