8√3 12√3 24√3 those are the choices, i really appreciate it !

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Can you find the area of a 4*4*4 equilateral triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to be honest i have absolutely no idea how to do any of this unit, im willing to try and to learn though, i really need a good grade on this unit

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

|dw:1407112190277:dw| Can you use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of the triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4.47?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2squared plus 4squared = 20, square root of 20 is 4.47 correct?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

\(4^{2} = 2^{2} + Height^{2}\) \(Height = \sqrt{16 - 4} = \sqrt{12} = 2\sqrt{3}\) Okay, what is the area of the triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i feel really dumb lol what is the formula to find the area?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks for your help, as you can see im awful at math

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Unacceptable response. Find the area of the triangle. \(Area = ½\cdot Base\cdot Heaight\) Go!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so .5X 2 =1 then 1X 2sqroot3 = 3.464?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

We're talking about the whole triangle The base is 4. Try again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.93?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Practice using exact values. \(½(4)(2\sqrt{3}) = 4\sqrt{3}\) That's about 6.93, but the exact value is often more useful. Okay, back to the original drawing. How many such triangles are there in the figure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 including the outside

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

The important part is 4 if you include the bottom. If you exclude the bottom, you get the lateral surface area. Okay, can we now answer the question?

i got logged out for inactivity, it wont let me attempt the quiz again until tomorrow, i have other assignments to do though, thanks a lot for your help!
