The triangle QPR having inscribed triangle STU will allow the artisan to divided his glass piece into four equal triangular pieces.
In order to divide an equilateral triangle into four equal triangular glass pieces, the artisan must;
- Take S as the mid-point on PA, T as the mid-point on PR, and U as the mid-point on QR. Thus, S, T, and U are the three mid-points on each side of the equilateral triangle QPR.
- Now, by joining these mid-points S, T, and U, four equal triangles are made(as shown in the figure).
Since the triangle is equilateral,
PQ = QR = RP
Mid-point divides the lines into equal parts. So,
PS = SQ = QU = UR = RT = TP
Thus, it is proved that
ΔPST = ΔSTU = ΔTUR = ΔQSU

The total area of the blades is the area of a triangle multiplied by 4.
We have then:
Where,
b: base of the blades
h: height of the blades
Substituting values we have:
Doing the calculation we have that the area of the blades is given by:
Answer:
The total area of the blades is:
Is 1/2 an answer? That’s what I keep getting
Answer:
<h3>Q1</h3>
<u>Use slope formula</u>
- m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
- m = (-2 - 6)/(3 - 7) = -8 / -4 = 2
- m = 2
<h3>Q2</h3>
Angles 2 and 6 are on the corresponding sides of the parallel lines, hence are corresponding angle
<u>Correct option is </u>
<h3>Q3</h3>
Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding parts
- ΔABC ≅ Δ GHI
- AB≅GH
- AB = GH = 13
<u>Correct choice is</u>
<h3>Q4</h3>
Option b is correct for any line and doesn't make the lines parallel. The rest of the options are correct for parallel lines.
<u>Correct option is the last one:</u>
