A store is having a sale in which all items are 20% off. If p is the original price of an item, then the equation p - 0.2p = 0.8

Answer Expert Verified

We are given that there is a 20% sale in the store. Moreover, the sale price of an item is p - 0.2p, where p is the price of the item. So, we get that, p - 0.2p is equivalent to 0.8p

Which statements about finding the area of the equilateral triangle are true? Check all that apply.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The correct options are 1, 2 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is an equilateral triangle. All the sides of an equilateral triangle are same. All interior angles are equal with measure 60 degree.

The distance from the center of an equilateral triangle to the midpoint of a side is known as apothem. In the given figure letter a represents the apothem.

Point D is the midpoint of BC,

$b=\frac{BC}{2}=\frac{8.7}{2}=4.35$

Use Pythagorean theorem in triangle COD. So, option 1 is correct.

$OC^2=OD^2+DC^2$

$5^2=a^2+(4.35)^2$

$25=a^2+18.9225$

$a=\pm 2.46526$

$a\approx\pm 2.5$

The distance can not be negative, so the length of the apothem is approximately 2.5 cm. Option 4 is correct.

The line OC bisects the angle C.

$tan(30^{\circ})=\frac{a}{b}$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}=\frac{a}{4.35}$

$a\approx\pm 2.5$

Therefore option 2 is correct.

The perimeter of an equality triangle is

$P=3a=3(8.7)=26.1$

Option 3 is incorrect.

$A=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(8.7)^2=32.77$

Option 5 is incorrect.

Therefore options 1, 2 and 4 are correct.
