Question 600258: Hi! i have a equilateral triangle with a "radius"(not sure why they said it that way, i think it means the distance from the center to the point) of 6. I need to find the area and perimeter of the triangle from this information. Thanks for your time Answer by richard1234(7193) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "Radius" can be either a circumradius (the distance from the center to the vertex, most probably what you're describing) or the inradius (the radius of the inscribed circle). In either case, use 30-60-90 triangles to find the side length, then find the area and perimeter.
