Triangle abc is a regular triangle
Check the picture below.
let's recall that the midsegment of a triangle is the segment that's half-way to both endsides and is at the same time parallel to the 3rd side, is also half the length of the parallel side, so-called the base.
so, for example, we know L, M and N are midpoints to each segment, that means that LM is a midsegment and parallel to PR and also half the length of PR, same is true for LN and MN.
First term = T(1) is obtained by plugging n = 1 into the formula,
thus First term = 1^2 - 4 = 1 - 4
= 3 (answer)
3.482 x 10^9.
-the coefficient must be under 10, and in this case it is the "3". Then you count the places after that to get your exponent
