Question

A horse is tethered to one corner of a field which is in the shape of an equilateral triangle of side 12 m If the length of the rope is 7 m find the area of the field which the horse cannot graze Take 3 173 Write the answer correct to 2 places of decimal

Accepted Answer

Each angle of the equilateral triangle 600 Side of an equilateral triangle 12 m Length of the rope 7 m Area of an equilateral triangle 34 side2 34 x 12 x 12 6235 m2 Area of sector with radius 7 m 60360 x 227 x 7 x 7 2566 m2 Now The area which cannot be grazed by horse Area of an equilateral triangle Area of the sector with radius 7 m 6235 m2 2566 m2 3668 m2
