Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that the side length is s. Imagine that one side is level. Draw a vertical line through the top vertex perpendicular to the base (level side). Label this vertical line "h." Then h and s are related as follows:
√3 h
sin 60 degrees = ------- = --------
2 s
s√3
and so h = the height of the triangle = -----------
2
The area of this triangle is (1/2)(base)(height), which here is:
(1/2)(s/2)( s√3 /2), or
(s^2)√3
A = ---------------

Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
10 * 1/10 is 1
Less than means to subtract so 2678 less than 10000 will be
=10000-2678
=7322
Answer:
37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of polio vaccination given=x
Let the number of measles vaccination given=y
Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations
x+y=60
Since each polio vaccination consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 2 doses. A total of 184 doses was given out.
4x+2y=184
To find the values of x and y, we solve the two equations simultaneously.
x+y=60 (1)
4x+2y=184 (2)
From (1), x=60-y
Substitute x=60-y into equation 2.
4x+2y=184
4(60-y)+2y=184
240-4y+2y=184
240-184=4y-2y
56=2y
Divode both sides by 2
y=23
Recall earlier that x=60-y
x=60-23=37
Dr Potter gave 37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.
