Question

When Natalie finishes drawing the large triangle on the poster board, what will be the approximate measure of side BC? Round to the nearest centimeter.

Answer 1

Answer:

31 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached.

A triangle is a polygon with three sides (three edges and three vertices). There are different types of triangles which are equilateral triangles, right triangles, scalene triangles, obtuse triangles, acute triangles, and isosceles triangles.

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all its sides are equal and all its angles are equal to 60°.

From the triangle, AB = BC = AC = 9.5 cm

Since the triangle is enlarged 3.25 times, hence:

new length of BC = 9.25 cm × 3.25 = 30.875

New length of BC = 31 cm to nearest cm
