Equilateral
equi means equal
lateral means sides

all sides are equal
triangle has 3 sides

perimiter=side1+side2+side3
side1=side2=side3


area=1/2 times base times height
base=side
draw a line down the middle of te tiangle so you get 2 right triangles side by side
1/2base is one leg
base is hypotonuse
height is unknown
equilateral means that it is a 30-60-90 triangle with  hypotonuse equal to 2x, height=x√3, bottom is x
1/2 times base times height=1959
1/2 times x times x√3=1959
multiply both sides by 2
(x^2)√3=3918
divide both sides by √3
x^2=3918/√3
square root both sides
x=47.5611
side=hypotonuse=2x
2x=2*47.5611
side=95.12222


legnth of each side is 2\sqrt{ \frac{3918}{ \sqrt{3} } }cm or about 95.12222 cm

Erin created a scale drawing for a garden that will be 10 ft by 5 ft. She plans to include a section in the garden for herbs, wh
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing are 2.4 by 6 inches

Step 1 (finding the scale factor):

12/10 (inches/feet) or 1.2 (inches/feet)

(1.2 inches<em> </em>in the <em>drawing</em> represent 1 foot in real life)

Step 2 (finding the dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing):

Real life dimensions are 2ft by 5ft so we multiply by the <em>scale factor</em>:

2ft = 2 x 1.2 = 2.4 inches

5ft = 5 x 1.2 = 6 inches

So the dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing are 2.4 by 6 inches.
