If the altitude of an equilateral triangle is 14 how long is each side of the triangle?
Each side of the triangle is 16.16581 units in length.
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is 8cm . find the side?
The length of each side is 9.2376 cm. (rounded)
If the side length of an equilateral triangle is 5 centimeters what is the length of the altitude of the triangle?
Height = sqrt(3)/2 * length of side So here, approx 4.3301 cm
What is the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with an altitude of 15?
An equilateral triangle has 3 equal interior angles each of 60 degrees. There are two right angled triangles in an equilateral triangle. So we can use trigonometry to find the length of one side of the equilateral triangle then multiply this by 3 to find its perimeter. Hypotenuse (which is one side of the equilateral) = 15/sin 60 degrees = 17.32050808 17.32050808 x 3 = 51.96152423 Perimeter = 51.96152423 units.
What is the altitude of an equilateral triangle that has a side of 6 inches?
The answer is butt head ha ha ha suckers
Is the altitude of an equilateral triangle equal to a side length?
No. The altitude is smaller.
If the altitude of an equilateral triangle is 14 how long is each side of the triangle?
Each side of the triangle is 16.16581 units in length.
What is the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle with sides of length 6?
The altitude forms a right angle triangle with half the side length and one side as the hypotenuse. Using Pythagoras: (½side)² + altitude² = side² → altitude² = side² - ¼side² → altitude² = ¾side² → altitude = (√3)/2 × side → altitude = (√3)/2 × 6 = 3√3 ≈ 5.2
What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle?
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is (√3)/2*a. where 'a' is the side of the triangle. It can be just find by giving a perpendicular to the base of the triangle, the base of the triangle become a/2 and one side is a. so by applying Pythagoras theorem we will get the desired formula.
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is 8cm . find the side?
The length of each side is 9.2376 cm. (rounded)
What is the length of altitudeof an equilateral triangle with sides of 8?
Given side lengths of 8 units, an equilateral triangle will have an altitude of 7 (6.9282) units.
How do you find the length of a side of an equilateral triangle when you know the length of the altitude?
Multiply the altitude by [ 2 / sqrt(3) ] to get the length of the side.[ 2 / sqrt(3) ] is about 1.1547 (rounded)
What is the side of an equilateral triangle if its altitude is 3?
The sides are 2*sqrt(3) units in length.
What is the length of each side of an equilateral triangle when the altitude is 10?
With an altitude of 10 units, this triangle's sides each measure 11.55 (11.54701) units.
If the side length of an equilateral triangle is 5 centimeters what is the length of the altitude of the triangle?
Height = sqrt(3)/2 * length of side So here, approx 4.3301 cm
What is the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle whose side has a length of four?
The altitude/height of an equilateral triangle can be calculated by taking the perpendicular bisector of any side. This line will bisect its opposite angle forming two congruent right angled triangles. The side length of the original equilateral triangle is the hypotenuse and the short leg of right angled triangle is half the hypotenuse. By Pythagoras' Theorem : 42 = 22 + L2.........where L is the length of the altitude. L2 = 42 - 22 = 16 - 4 = 12 L = √12 = 2√3 = 3.464 (3dp)
Perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 15m. What is the length of a side?
15/3=5 equilateral triangle is a triangle with every side the same length
