The altitude of an equilateral triangle forms a 30-60-90 right triangle where the side of the equilateral triangle is the hypotenuse and the altitude is the long leg. The sides of a 30-60-90 right triangle are in proportion . Hence, if the side of the equilateral triangle measures , then the altitude must measure .

This is exactly the same as a "two kinds of coins in a pig bank" problem. You have to derive an equation that relates to the total NUMBER of the two things and then an equation that relates to the total VALUE of the two things. In this case, the value is expressed in points, but the idea and the process are the same.

Let represent the number of 8 point questions and represent the number of 10 point questions. Then the point value of all of the 8 point questions is and the point value of all of the 10 point questions is . The total NUMBER of questions is 21 and the total point VALUE of all the questions is 200, so:

a. Let represent time for the entire trip. Then represents the amount of time at 56 km/h. And also represents the amount of time at 70 km/h. Distance equals rate times time, so the distance traveled at 56 km/h is . The distance traveled at 70 km/h is . The sum of these distances is the total distance, , from Lafayette to Houston, so





Since distance equals rate times time, rate equals distance divided by time. Hence the average speed from L to H is 63 km/h.

Not enough information. The total of the measures of the external angles of any polygon is 360 degrees, but without knowing that this is a regular polygon, just knowing that one of the exterior angles measures 20 degrees doesn't tell you anything about the measures of the rest of them. On the other hand if it is a regular polygon, then you know that all of the external angles are the same so you just divide 360 by 20.

Typing all caps is the equivalent of shouting. It is both rude and annoying. Please don't apologize or make excuses -- just don't do it any more.

If the bike has a one hour head start at 20 miles per hour, then it will be 20 miles ahead when the car starts. The car is going 10 miles per hour faster, so it needs 20 miles divided by 10 miles per hour equals 2 hours to cover the head start distance.
