I have 14 questions. A geodesic dome is made up of triangles, most of which are equilateral. The surface uses less material and allows for more open space than traditional buildings. An equilateral panel of a geodesic dome has a base of 6 feet and a height of about 5.2 feet. What is its area in square feet?

Respuesta :

The area of a triangle with base b and height h is given by the formula:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}b\cdot h[/tex]

Replace b=6 and h=5.2 to find the area in square feet:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(6)(5.2)=15.6[/tex]

Therefore, the area of an equilateral panel in square feet is 15.6.
