Question

A building in the shape of a pyramid needs to have supports repaired, and two parallel sections need to be reinforced. The face of the building is an equilateral triangle. What are the lengths of KO and LN ?

Answer 1

The lengths of lines KO and LN is; 24cm and 18m respectively.

Equilateral triangles

Since the face of the building is an equilateral triangle and the sections of reinforcement are parallel to side JP;

• In essence; MJ = JP = PM

• Similarly, MK = KO = OM

• and ML = LN = NM

On this note, since, MK = 18m +6m = 24m.

• It follows that, KO = 24cm

Similarly, since, ML = 18m

• It follows that, LN = 18cm
