Question

10. A piece of wire is 600 cm long. What will be the
length of each side if the wire is used to form
(a) an equilateral triangle​

Answer 1

Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, all the sides of triangle together measure 180cm

Each side of the triangle will measure 180 ÷ 3 (as a triangle has 3 sides)

Therefore, length of each = 60cm

Now, length of each side of wire = 600÷60

= 10cm (Ans)

Answer 2

The total length of the wire is given to be 600 cm

Now, out of this 600 cm wire an equilateral triangle has been formed.

We have to find the length of each side of the triangle.

Now, an equilateral triangle has 3 side which are equal.

So, 600 has to be divide into 3 equal parts.

each side of triangle = 600 / 3

= 200 cm

Hence, each side of the triangle will be 200 cm in length
