The altitude of an equalateral triangle is 6√3 units long what is the length on one side of the triangle a. 12 b. 6 c. (7√3)/2 d. 14√3

A. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we split an equalateral triangle down, it will become 2 30-60-90 triangles. Remember your 30-60-90 triangle rules.

6√3 = x√3, so x = 6

2(6) (for hypotenuse) = 12

Since the hypotenuse is one side of the bigger triangle, we have our final answer of 12.

∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

step-by-step explanation:

given, a ∥ b and ∠1 ≅ ∠3 .we have to prove that e ∥ f

we know that ∠1≅∠3 and that a || b because they are given. we see that by the alternate exterior angles theorem. therefore, ∠2≅∠3 by the transitive property. so, we can conclude that e || f by the converse alternate exterior angles theorem.

we have to fill the missing statement.

transitivity property states that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.

now, given ∠1≅∠3 and by transitivity property ∠2≅∠3 .

hence, to apply transitivity property one angle must be common which is not in result after applying this property which is ∠1.

the only options in which ∠1 is present are ∠1 and ∠2, ∠1 and ∠4

∠1 and ∠4 is not possible ∵ after applying transitivity we didn't get ∠4.

hence, the missing statement is ∠1≅∠2.

so, ∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
