Let's draw the diagonals of the square. The square is being divided by 4 right triangles. & these right triangles are also isosceles (the diagonals of a square intercepts each other in the middle).
The area of each right triangle = (6 x 6) / 2 = 18 yard² & the 4 right triangles => 4x 18 = 72 yd²
In an equilateral triangle, the measure of each angle is 60 degrees. Then the value of x and y is 17/3 and 65.
<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>
A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.
In trianlge ΔMNP, PM = 3x - 4, MN = 14, ∠N = 5y - 5.
In an equilateral triangle, all the sides and all the angles are equal.
MN = NP = PM
∠M = ∠N = ∠P
Then we have
PM = MN
3x - 4 = 14
x = 17/3
We know in an equilateral triangle, the measure of each angle is 60 degrees. Then we have
∠N = 60
5y - 5 = 60
5y = 65
y = 13
