a. Consider a non-equilateral triangle. Try to create a tessellation around a point as you did before. Be sure you have no gaps or overlaps. Do you think any triangle with tessellate? Why or why not? Defend your reasoning.

Solutions

Expert Solution

A tessellation of a flat surface is the tilling of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps.

Two copies of a triangle make a parallelogram and parallelogram make strips that fill the plane.

yes we can do tessellation with any triangle with the above method.

Consider an equilateral triangle, inscribed in a circle of radius a, with a point charge q at each vertex. The electric field is zero at the center, but surprisingly there are three other points inside the triangle where the field is also zero. Where are they? Find the distance from these points to the center of the circle. Please just get the answer to E in terms of a, x, and y. I only need you to solve up to...

An equilateral triangle is a triangle whose sides are equal. You are to write a class called Triangle, using filenames triangle.h and triangle.cpp, that will allow the creation and handling of equilateral triangles, whose sides are integers in the range 1-39. Details: 1. The single constructor for the Triangle class should have 3 parameters: an integer size (required), which is the length of a side; a border character (optional, with a default of '#'); and a fill character (optional, with...
