The incenter of a triangle is equidistant from all sides of the triangle
The incenter is the center of the biggest circle that can be drawn in the triangle, and is called incircle
The incircle will be tangent to all sides of the triangle.
Observation:
In an equilateral triangle the incenter, circumcenter, and centroid are all the same
Answer:
5.57 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, the light string, the height of the mast and the distance between the base of the mast and the end of the string form a right triangle, in which:
- The hypothenuse is the string
- The height is the mast
- The base is the distance between the base of the mast and the end of the light string
Here in this problem, we have:
(length of the string, hypothenuse)
(height of the mast, height)
So we can find the distance between the base of the mast and the end of the string just by applying Pythagorean's theorem:
Answer:
183
Step-by-step explanation:
5.56*32.958 = 183.24648, round to nearest whole number
