Let me tell you the process so that you get to the answer Remember first that the area of a regular polygon with x sides has each of them a length which can be represented by y
<span>A = 1/4 * xy^2 * Cot(180/x) </span> <span>The purpose is to solve for y, so we get </span> <span>y^2 = 4A/(xCot(180/x)) </span> <span>y = √(4A/(xCot(180/x)))
The thing we need to change is A in the previous formula and with that we can use the equaation to be a constant. This could be represented by Z </span><span>Z = √(4/(xCot(180/x))) so </span><span>Y = Z√A </span><span>If we increase area by a factor s, y increases by a factor of √x. </span>So if you want to know the triple then you need to increase it by <span> √3 </span> <span> </span>
