Answer:

The area of the triangular garden is 173\ ft^{2}  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal internal angles (the measure of each internal angle is 60 degrees)

The area of a triangle applying the law of sines is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(a)(b)sin(C)

In this problem we have a equilateral triangle

therefore

a=b=20\ ft

C=60\°

substitute

A=\frac{1}{2}(20)(20)sin(60\°)

A=\frac{1}{2}(20)(20)\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\ \\A=100\sqrt{3}\ ft^{2}\\ \\A=173\ ft^{2}

Look at the adjoining figure and write 2 pairs of intersecting lines.​
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

  • Line AB and Line GH
  • Line CD and Line FF

Concept:

Intersecting lines are lines that overlap upon only one point. The number of lines can be two or more.

Intersecting lines can intersect at any angle.

Solve:

There are in total four intersecting points in the given figure.

As we can see from the figure, any two lines would intersect each other

Therefore, 2 pairs of intersecting lines can be any pairings of lines that are not in the same orientation.

  • Line AB and Line GH
  • Line CD and Line FF

Hope this helps!! :)
