An equilateral triangle of side 3 inch is given. How many
equilateral triangles of side 1 inch can be formed from it
Answer Posted / kamaljeet kaur
Hey two cases are there...
If someone is suppose that he is given a triangle like a
wire , and has to make equilateral triangles out of it,
Total length of the sides of original triangle(x) = 9 inches.
Total length of the sides of 1 inch equilateral triangle(y)
= 3 inches
Total number of 1 inch triangles = x/y = 3
Answer = 3 triangles......
And in second case, if he suppose that a trianlge drawn on
paper is given.... then area wise, 9 triangles can be
made.... we can't stick to that answer only.. Coz actually a
triangle has no area... so 3 triangles... must be the
preffered answer.
