Example: First draw a base line 7 inches long. Measure 3.5 from one end and mark the middle. Draw a 7 inch vertical line from the middle mark at right-angles to the base line. Draw a line from the top of the vertical line to one end of the base line. Repeat on other side. You have now constructed an equilateral triangle, with 3 angles of 60 degrees.

Explain how to draw an equilateral triangle?

An equilateral triangle means a triangle with all three sides with equal dimensions. For drawing an equilateral triangle first you will have to choose a measurement to draw the sides of the triangle. For example, lets take the side to be 4cm. When you draw the base of 4cm you will have to draw the other two sides of 4cm as well. Thus an equilateral triangle is constructed..

How would you draw a diagram to represent the contrapositive of the statement If it is an equilateral triangle then it is an isosceles triangle?

To represent the contrapositive of the statement "If it is an equilateral triangle, then it is an isosceles triangle," you would first identify the contrapositive: "If it is not an isosceles triangle, then it is not an equilateral triangle." In a diagram, you could use two overlapping circles to represent the two categories: one for "equilateral triangles" and one for "isosceles triangles." The area outside the isosceles circle would represent "not isosceles triangles," and the area outside the equilateral circle would represent "not equilateral triangles," highlighting the relationship between the two statements.

What is the volume of an equilateral triangle?

First your question should ask "What is the area of an equilateral triangle". What you're talking about is a flat object not a 3d object (triangle is 2d). s=side measurement Rad means radical. (s^2 *Rad(3))/4

Mateo is constructing an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle with center P. What is his first step?

Mateo's first step in constructing an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle with center P is to draw the circle itself, ensuring that the radius is defined. Next, he can mark a point on the circumference of the circle to serve as one vertex of the triangle. From there, he will need to use a compass to find the other two vertices by measuring the same distance (the length of the triangle's side) along the circumference of the circle. Finally, he will connect the three points to form the equilateral triangle.
