Expert Answer
For calculating the distance of the midpoint of the base of an isosceles triangle from q we will apply Pythagoras's theorem x² = a² + a²/4 x =?3 a/2. Isosceles triangle is in which 2 sides are equal so electric field is asked at the mid point of the base we will calculate the distance of q charge at the respective corner by Pythagoras theorem
