How do you make 3 equal sides to a triangle?

For equal sides make an Equilateral triangle. Equilateral triangles have 3 internal angles of 60o. All 3 sides are equal length. Make one using those characteristics.


What is the height of an equilateral triangle with a length of x?

Cutting the equilateral triangle in half results in two right triangles each with a base of length x/2, and angles of 30, 60, and 90 degrees. Using the lengths of sides of a 30-60-90 triangle it can be found that the height is (x/2)√(3), which is the same as the height of the equilateral triangle.So the height of the equilateral triangle is x√(3) / 2.


How do you find the perimeter of a parallelogram using Pythagorean theorem?

you can't, because the Pythagorean theorem is for right triangles and the triangles formed by the diagonal of a parallelogram are not right triangles.


Make 4 triangles and 2 squares using 6 straight lines?

Draw a rectangle in the ratio of 1:2 eg sides of 5cm & 10cm. Bisect both the longer sides and join their mid points with a straight line. Draw a diagonal. This gives you 2 squares, 2 big triangles and 2 small triangle (1 in each square)


When you trisect a right angle you first construct what kind of triangle?

To trisect a right angle form an equilateral triangle with one vertex at the right angle and then bisect that angle of the equilateral triangle. (It is impossible to trisect a general angle using only compass and straight edge - the right angle is a specific exception.)
