Hi All,
I have posted a video on you-tube to discuss about Equilateral Triangle Inscribed in A Circle
And, Length of Major and Minor Arc formed by a Side of an Equilateral Triangle Inscribed in a Circle
Following is Covered in the Video
Measure of Center Angle
Measure of Center Angle ∠AOB = ∠AOC = ∠BOC = 120° ( Watch this video to understand how )
Hint: ∠ACB = 60°, so center angle will be twice of it
Also, ∠OAB = ∠OBA = 30°
∠OBC = ∠OCB = 30°
∠OAC = ∠OCA = 30°
Height of Triangle
Height of triangle, h (AD) = \(\frac{3r}{2}\)
( Watch this video to understand how )
Base of Triangle
Base of triangle, BC = √𝟑 r ( Watch this video to understand how )
Area of Triangle
Area of triangle ABC = \(\frac{3√𝟑 r^2}{4}\)
( Watch this video to understand how )
Length of Minor Arc formed by one side of the triangle
Length of Minor Arc AB = \(\frac{120˚}{360˚}* 2 \pi \) r = \(\frac{2\pi r}{3}\) (as Minor angle ∠AOB = 120˚)
( Watch this video to understand how )
Length of Major Arc formed by one side of the triangle
Length of Major Arc AB = \(\frac{240˚}{360˚} * 2\pi r\) = \(\frac{4\pi r}{3}\) (as Major angle ∠AOB = 240˚)
( Watch this video to understand how )
Hope it helps!
