Find the side $ a $ of a triangular prism if height $h = 2$ and area $A = 200$.
Answer
$a = \frac{ 4 \sqrt{ 3}}{ 3 }$
Explanation
To find side $ a $ use formula:
$$ h = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$After substituting $ h = 2 $ we have:
$$ 2 = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 2 \cdot 2 $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 4 $$ $$ a = \dfrac{ 4 }{ \sqrt{ 3 } } $$ $$ a = \frac{ 4 \sqrt{ 3}}{ 3 } $$This page was created using
