The side of an equilateral triangle is 36 cm. What is the radius of the circle circumscribing this equilateral triangle? |
$13\sqrt{3}$ cm $10\sqrt{3}$ cm $12\sqrt{3}$ cm $9\sqrt{3}$ cm |
$12\sqrt{3}$ cm |
Calculation Circum-radius = \(\frac{36}{ √3 }\) = \(\frac{12 \;×\; 3}{ √3 }\) = 12\(\sqrt { 3}\) Therefore, the radius of the circle circumscribing this equilateral triangle is 12\(\sqrt {3 }\) cm. |
