Question 1022366: a) Show that the triangle with vertices D(-1,0), E(1,0) and F(0,√3) is equilateral.
b) List the coordinates of the vertices of another equilateral triangle Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The base of the triangle which is the segment DE clearly has length 2.
The point (0, ) is units above the x-axis and lies on the positive y-axis.
Similarly,
.
Therefore the triangle is equilateral.
