Lian walked a distance of 600m. If he walked around an equilateral triangle garden 5 times what is the length of one
Answer:
One side of the triangle is 40m.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, get the perimeter of the triangle. We know that 5 times of a walk around the triangular is 600m, so
P = 600m / 5 = 120m
Then, divide the perimeter by the total number of sides. A triangle has 3 sides, so
s = P / 3
= 120m / 3
= 40m
