Given :- (From image)
- AD = Pole = 10m
- ∠ABC = ∠BAC = ∠BCA = 60° .
- ∠ADB = 90° .
To Find :-
- The side of the equilateral triangle . ?
Solution :-
in right ∆ADB, we have,
→ sin 60° = (perpendicular) / (Hypotenuse)
→ √3/2 = AD / AB
→ √3 / 2 = 10 / AB
→ AB * √3 = 10 * 2
→ √3AB = 20
→ AB = (20/√3)
rationalize the RHS part by multiplying and dividing (√3) ,
→ AB = (20/√3) * (√3/√3)
→ AB = (20√3) / 3 m (Ans.)
Hence, each side of equilateral triangle is (20√3/3)m .
