If the area of an equilateral triangle is 18\(\sqrt {3}\) sq. cm. Find side of the triangle. |
6 cm 6\(\sqrt {2}\) cm 8 cm 9 cm |
6\(\sqrt {2}\) cm |
Area of an equilateral triangle = \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{4} a^2\) ⇒ 18\(\sqrt {3}\) = \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{4} a^2\) ⇒ 18 × 4 = a2 ⇒ a = 6\(\sqrt {2}\) cm |
