Answer:

√3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

You already know that the side is 2x, so we know that the fraction is the height divided by 2x. Now we need to find the length of the height. There is a theorem that states that the height of an equilateral triangle is x√3/2, if x is the length of a side. However, since our side length is 2x, the height will be 2x√3/2.

The ratio will be 2x√3/2/2x. Since we do not want a fraction inside of a fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by two to get rid of the denominator in the numerator (I'm sorry if this is confusing, but that's geometry for you). Once we do just that, the ratio will become 4x√3/4x. However, it turns out that we can simplify this even more by reducing the fraction by 4x. The simplified ratio will become √3/1.

How to write 8ft and 26in in standard notation
zmey [24]

The length in standard notation is 2.17 + 8 = 10.17 ft

<h3>How to write in standard notation? </h3>

A standard notation is a form of writing a given number, an equation, or an expression in a form that follows certain rules.

For example 9.5 billions years can be represented as follows;

9,500,000,000 years.

Therefore,  let's write 8 ft and 26 inches in standard form.

12 inches = 1 ft

26 inches = ?

cross multiply

length(ft) = 26 / 12

length(ft) = 2.16666666667

length(ft) = 2.17 ft

Therefore, the length in standard notation is 2.17 + 8 = 10.17 ft
