Find the exact value for the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with an altitude of 18 cm

9514 1404 393

  36√3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 2√3 times the height.

  P = (2√3)h

  P = (2√3)(18 cm) = 36√3 cm

A little more detail

The hypotenuse of a 30°-60°-90° triangle is 2/√3 times the longer leg. Here, the longer leg is 18 cm, so the side length of the equilateral triangle is ...

  18(2/√3) = 12√3 . . . cm

The equilateral triangle perimeter is 3 times that, or 36√3 cm.

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
