I'm trying to draw an equilateral triangle on a canvas of 400 by 400 pixels with the horizontal base twice the length of its height. I also want to draw a circle around the triangle where the triangle base forms the circle's diameter and the circle touches all the points of the triangle. I drew the triangle but can't seam to get everything else right. Can anyone help me?

I can't see an equilateral triangle with its base = 2 * height!

I can see an isosceles or scalene triangle obeying those rules.

Clarify your question and post what you've done so far so that we can see how you're approaching this (this applies to your other post about an arc too).
