Answer:

3.897 in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

equilateral triangles are also equiangular, meaning the have equal angles.

Triangle sum theory says that angles of a triangle add up to 180.

That means each angle is 60.

A = bh/2

You need the (h). The base of is 3.  Perimeter = 9, so each side is 3

Draw a perpendicular line for the height. The line cuts the base in half (1.5)

Using trigonometry you can find the height.

tan 60° = h/1.5

h = height, 1.5 is half of 3, 60° is the base angle.

multiply each side by 1.5

1.5(tan 60°) = h

h=2.598

then substitute h into formula

A= <u>(2.598)(3) </u>

           2

A = 3.897 rounded

What are the steps to answer -3(2r+7)=3
kumpel [21]
-3(2r+7)=3
distribute -3
-6r-21=3
add 21 to both sides, this causes the 21 on the left to cancel itself out.
-6r=24
divide each side by -6, this causes the -6 on the left side to cancel itself out.
r=-4
