A horse is tied with a 21 m long rope to the corner of a field which is in the shape of an equilateral triangle. Find the area of the field over which it can graze. \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "If the altitude of the triangle >= 21 m, then \n" ); document.write( "Area = (1/6)*pi*r^2 \n" ); document.write( "= 147pi/2 sq meters \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "If the side of the triangle <= 21 m, then \n" ); document.write( "Area = area of the triangle. \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "Between those 2, you'll have to spec the side length of the triangle. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
