A triangle with side lengths of 300ftm, 250ft, and 200ft.
What is the area of the largest circle you can fit in the triangle?
And how do you figure that out?
What is the equation?

You have to take the longest side, in this case it is 300ft and use that as the diameter.
And, I think you mean what is the area of the smallest circle that can fit the triangle, because you can have a circile that is infinite in size that will still fit the triangle in it, right?
Anyway, so for the smallest circle that will fit the triangle, use 300ft as the diameter. That means that 150ft is the radius. From there just calculate the area of a circle which is pi * radius^2.
Which numerically looks like: 3.14 * 150^2 = 3.14 * 22500 = 70650ft.
