A company logo is shaped like an equilateral triangle with 2-in.-long sides. What is the height of the logo? Round to the nearest tenth. A. 1.0 in. B. 1.7 in. C. 2.0 in. D. 1.4 in.

The height of the equilateral triangle is required.

The height of the logo is option B. 1.7 in.

A perpendicular to from one of the vertices of an equilateral triangle bisects the sides into two equal halves.

a = Length of every side of the equilateral triangle = 2 in

b = Length of the bisected length =

From the Pythagoras theorem we have

B. 1.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the triangle into 2 congruent right angle triangles

With hypotenuse: 2

Base: 2/2 = 1

Using pythagoras theorem

2² = 1² + h²

h² = 3

h = sqrt(3)

h = 1.732050808

it is rigid.; it is isometric. ; the size is preserved.

step-by-step explanation:

a translation is called an isometry; these are transformations that preserve congruence between pre-images and images.

they are also called rigid transformations, as the only thing that can happen to a pre-image is that it is moved or turned, not stretched or shrunk.

since congruence is preserved, the size is preserved.
