Equation of the base of an equilateral t...

Equation of the base of an equilateral triangle is `3x + 4y = 9 ` and its vertex is at point (1,2) .Find the equations of the other sides and the length of each side of the triangle .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`x(4sqrt(3)+3)+y(4-3sqrt(3))=11-2sqrt(3)=11+sqrt(3)and,y(4+sqrt(3))-x(4sqrt(3)-3)=11+2sqrt(3),(4sqrt(3))/15`
