Respuesta :
The quadrilateral formed by the taping together of two equilateral
triangles is a rhombus.
How can the type of quadrilateral formed be known?
The given types of triangles that form the quadrilateral are equilateral
triangles.
Given that the triangles have congruent side lengths, we have;
1) The side lengths of the quadrilateral formed are equal.
2) A pair opposite angles of the quadrilateral formed are equal to the interior angle of an equilateral triangle which is 60°.
3) The other pair of opposite angles are also equal to 60° + 60° = 120°.
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is perpendicular to the base.
Which gives;
4) The diagonals bisect each other at right angles.
Therefore;
The adjacent angles are supplementary
Which gives;
5) The opposite sides are parallel.
The above properties are the properties of a rhombus
Therefore;
- The quadrilateral formed is a rhombus
