The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 36 cm. What is the area of this triangle?
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 36 cm.
the perimeter of an equilateral triangle =Â $$3\times length\ of\ each\ side\ =36\ $$
$$length\ of\ each\ side=12$$
Area of this triangle =Â $$\frac{\sqrt{\ 3}}{4}\times\left(length\ of\ each\ side\right)^2$$
=Â $$\frac{\sqrt{\ 3}}{4}\times\left(12\right)^2$$
= $$\frac{\sqrt{\ 3}}{4}\times144$$Create a FREE account and get:
