How many equilateral triangles with a 1 inch sides can be cut from an equilateral triangle with 3 inch sides?
9
How to draw a hexagon?
A hexagon is a six-sided figure. Cut an equilateral triangle out of a piece of paper. Chop off little equilateral triangles at each tip of the triangle. What you have is a hexagonal piece of paper. Draw around it.
Can an equilateral triangle be symmetrical?
Yes. An equilateral triangle can be symmetrical because cut it straight down the middle and it will be symmertrical.
Liang said that an equilateral triangle must have angles totaling 360 degrees because he can cut it into 2 right triangles is liangs statement correct explain?
wrong. a triangle can have total of 180 deg inside anglesAny and every triangle will always have three internal angles which total 180 degrees.Equilateral triangles are special because all three angles are 60 degrees each.
Can an equiangular triangle have a right triangle?
Obviously!! That is when you cut the equilateral triangle into two with the help of a line running from the top part of the triangle and stands perpendicular to the base of the triangle.

What is a triangle called when cut horizontally?
Two triangles
What shape can be formed by cutting a triangle off of each of the four corners of a rectangle?
An 8 sided octagon or a 4 sided rhombus can be formed depending on the size of the triangles cut from each corner.
Is a trapezium a paralleogram?
no, it looks like an equilateral triangle with the top cut off.
Can 2 triangles make a square or a rectangle?
Yes, they can. To demonstrate this draw a square on a sheet of paper. Draw a line diagonally from one corner to the one opposite. Cut along this line and you will have two triangles. Take them apart; if you put them together again in the right way you will have a square. Put together in different ways you can make an isosceles triangle or an equilateral parallelogram. If you do the same thing beginning with a rectangle, you will be able to reassemble the triangles to form a rectangle, isosceles triangle or a (non-equilateral) parallelogram.

What do you get if you cut an equilateral triangle in half along a line through one vertex?
A 30-60-90 right triangle
How do you find the height of an equilateral triangle if you don't know its area and you only know that each side is equal to 41.3m?
Cut it exactly down the middle, along its height, and put one piece aside. The remaining side is a right triangle. The slanting side of the right triangle is a whole side of the original equilateral triangle, the bottom is half of an original side, and the vertical line is the height of the original triangle. Now you have a right triangle and you know the lengths of two of its sides, so you use what you know about right triangles to find the length of the third side, which is the height of the original equilateral triangle. It turns out to be 0.866 times the side of the equilateral triangle. (rounded) Technically, that's (1/2) x (side) x sqrt(3)
Can you always cut a right triangle into two congruent triangles?
Similar, YES. Congruent, NO.
