Problem 9

All three vertices of  lie on the parabola defined by , with  at the origin and  parallel to the -axis. The area of the triangle is . What is the length of ?

Solution

The area of the triangle is , so , giving a total distance across the top of , which is answer . 

Problem 10

A thin piece of wood of uniform density in the shape of an equilateral triangle with side length  inches weighs  ounces. A second piece of the same type of wood, with the same thickness, also in the shape of an equilateral triangle, has side length of  inches. Which of the following is closest to the weight, in ounces, of the second piece?

Solution 1

We can solve this problem by using similar triangles, since two equilateral triangles are always similar. We can then use

.

We can then solve the equation to get  which is closest to 

Solution 2

Also recall that the area of an equilateral triangle is so we can give a ratio as follows:

Cross multiplying and simplifying, we get 

Which is   

• Solution by 

Solution 3

Note that the ratio of the two triangle's weights is equal to the ratio of their areas, as the height is negligible. The ratio of their areas is equal to the square of the ratio of their sides. So if  denotes the  weight of the second triangle, we have

Solving gives us  so the answer is .
