An equilateral triangle has three 60 degree angles.
The altitude divides it into two 30 60 90 triangles.
The altitude is the "middle side" of such a triangle.
When that is the case, the middle side divided by the square root of 3 = the short side and multiplied by (2/sq root (3)) equals the hypotenuse.
The hypotenuse is the side of the equilateral triangle.
So, 6 * 2 / (sq root of 3) =

Answer:
Area of rectangle, 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given with side lengths of a rectangle are (2x-4) units and (x+1) units. It is required to find the area of rectangle.
The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its length and breadth. It is given by :
Let us consider, L = (2x-4) units and B = (x+1) units
Plugging the side lengths in above formula:
So, the function that models the area of a rectangle is .
X^2 + 3x - 6
This is because x^2 and 3x have nothing they can combine with, leaving them as their own number. 1 + - 6 will give you -5 as adding to a negative only reduces not adds entirely.
Hope this helps!
