Let the third side of triangle be x
Now parameter of triangle = sum of its sides
Therefore,
7a-11b=2a+b+a-9b+x
4a-4b=x(ans.)
27√3 in² ≈ 46.765 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways you can go at this. One is to recognize that the triangle formed by two vertices and the circle center is an isosceles triangle with apex angle 120°. Its area will be
A = (1/2)·r²·sin(120°) = (1/2)·(6 in)²·(√3)/2 = 9√3 in²
The total area of the inscribed triangle is the area of 3 of these, so is ...
A = 3·9√3 in² = 27√3 in²

Alternate solution
If we call the center of the circle point O, and the vertices of the inscribed equilateral triangle A, B, and C, we can define point X on segment AB such that OX⊥AB.
Triangle AOX is a 30°-60°-90° triangle, so has sides in the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. That is, AO is twice the length of OX, and AX is √3 times the length OX.
This makes OX = 3, AX = XB = 3√3, and XC = OX+OC = 3+6 = 9.
Now we have the dimensions of triangle ABC: the base AB is 6√3, and the height (XC) is 9. The area can be found in the usual way:
A = 1/2·bh = 1/2·(6√3 in)·(9 in) = 27√3 in²
Third side:4a-3b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that perimeter of a triangle is sum of all three sides,i. e. x,y and z
Here in the question
x=2a+b
y=a-9b
and z=?
P=7a-11b
2a+b+a-9b+z=7a-11b
3a-8b+z=7a-11b
z=7a-11b-3a+8b
z=4a-3b
is the third side of the triangle.
Hope it helps you.
The area is 3×1/2×6×6×sin120 = 27sqrt3 sq in
