Question

3) AABC is an equilateral triangle point P is on base BC such that
PC =½BC. If AB = 12cm. Find AP.​

Answer 1

Answer:

AP=3root 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given =ABC is an equilateral triangle

AB =12

AB=AC=BC

PC =1/2 BC

Proof=

By pythogoras theorem

Hyp^2=base^2+perp^2

12^2=6^2+perp^2

perp^2=144-36

=108

Perpendicular =3root 6

Hence, AP=3root 6
