Answer:

Solution Given:

let ABC be an equilateral triangle with the vertex A(2,-1) and slope =-1.

and

∡ABC=∡BAC=∡ACB=60°

slope of BC[ m_1]=-1

we have

\theta=60°

Slope of AB=[ m_2]=a

now

we have

angle between two lines is

Tan\theta =±\frac{m_1-m_2}{1+m_1m_2}

now substituting value

tan 60°= ± \frac{-1-a}{1+-1*a}

\sqrt{3}=±\frac{-1-a}{1-a}

<u>doing criss-cross multiplication;</u>

(1-a)\sqrt{3}=±-(1+a)

\sqrt{3}-a\sqrt{3}=±(1+a)

<u>taking positive</u>

-a-a\sqrt{3}=1-\sqrt{3}

-a(1+\sqrt{3})=1-\sqrt{3}

a=\frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{-(1+\sqrt{3})}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}

<u>taking negative </u>

a-a\sqrt{3}=-1-\sqrt{3}

a(1-\sqrt{3})=-1-\sqrt{3}

a=\frac{-(1+\sqrt{3})}{(1-\sqrt{3})}=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}

Equation of a line when a =\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}

and passing through (2,-1),we have

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y+1=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}(x-2)

y=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}x-2\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}-1

<h3>\boxed{\bold{\green{y=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{1+\sqrt{3}}x-5+2\sqrt{3}}}}<u> is a first side equation of line.</u></h3><h3><u>again</u></h3>

Equation of a line when a =\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}

and passing through (2,-1),we have

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y+1=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}(x-2)

y+1=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}x -2\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}

y=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}x -2\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}-1

<h3>\boxed{\bold{\blue{y=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{-1+\sqrt{3}}x -5+2\sqrt{3}}}} <u>is another equation of line.</u></h3>

Andrea has 18 yards of fabric. How many 4 inch pieces can she cut from her original place?
Galina-37 [17]
4inches = 1/3 of a foot (4inches x 3 = 12 inches) - so she can cut 3 out of each foot

1 yard = 3 feet - so she can cut 3 x 3 = 9 out of each yard

18 x 9 = 162 pieces
