....and the short leg is the quotient of the long leg and root 3, which is what I said, eh? Taking the formula I derived, S= (3/4)xDx(2/3^1/3), simplifies to 3 times the diameter divided by twice the square root of 3. Which is the same result as IrieTom and GeneN's.....but I agree, I like Gene's solution because it's simpler!
