Answer:
3.897
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>

A = 3.897 rounded
Answer:
128 ft sq.
Step-by-step explanation:
The way you find the area of a square is by multiplying one side by another, and since it is a square, the sides are the same. This means that if we have a square with a side length of x, the way to find the area of that square is to multiply x by x, which can be written as . Now, since we're doubling this, we can say that double Mary's garden is
. If we substitute 8 in for x, we have to multiply
by 2 or 8 by 8 by 2 to find our answer. 8 times 8 is 64 and 64 times 2 is 128.
