<span>Draw a circle and locate three points on the circumference equal to 0 degrees, 120 degrees and 240 degrees.
draw a line from the 0 degree point to the 120 degree point,
draw a line from the 120 degree point to the 240 degree point.
draw a line from the 240 degree point to the 0 degree point
You have now drawn the equilateral triangle and finding the length of the chord formed by any of the sides you will have the length of each of the three sides
The area is then = (L^2 x 3^0.5)/4 = 0.4333 x L^2, where L is the length of one of the sides.</span>gatorbait <span>· 5 years ago</span>

The metaphor in this statement is "the great millstone" it kind of qualification word it express how big the time was.
But in reality, millstone doesn't even have a relationship with the time.
