What is the area of an equilateral triangle with radius 15 centimeters? Round your answers to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

1 answer:

4 0

Radius is 2/3 of the height of an equilateral triangle.
15 = 2/3 h
h = 15 : 2/3 = 15 · 3/2 = 45/2 = 22.5 cm
a · cos 30° = h
a · √3/2 = h
a = 45/√3 = 15√3 cm
A = 1/2 · a · h = 1/2 · 15√3 · 22.5 = 0.5 · 15 · 1.7320508 · 22.5
A= 292.28 ≈ 292.3 cm²

If f(x)= 3 over x+2- square root x-3 f(19)=

PSYCHO15rus [73]

F(19)= (3/(19+2)) - sqrt(19-3)
= (3/21) - sqrt(16)
= (1/7) - 4
= (1/7) - (28/7)
= -27/7
= - 3 6/7

2π radians is equal to 360° which is just π rad/180° so:

120°(π/180°)=2π/3
