Question

An equilateral triangle has has an era of 43.5 square feet the height is 8.5 feet what is the Perimeter of the triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

30.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle with area 43.5 has a height of 8.68 not 8.5

I will do the problem as written even though it is not a possible equilateral triangle

---------------------------------------------

a = (1/2)bh

43.5 = (1/2)b(8.5)

43.5 = 4.25b

b = 43.5/4.25

b = 10.2352941176

-----------------------

p = 3b

p = 3 * 10.2352941176

p = 30.7058823528

~ 30.7 ft
