consider a  Triangle ABC and height AD on AD point O centre on circle lies. 
O is centroid that divides median AD in 2:1 ratio. 
i.e. AO = 10 so OD = 5 so AD = 10 + 5 = 15 
Now it is equilateral triangle so all angles are 60°. 
height of triangle = (√3/2) × side 
15 = √3/2 side 
side = 30/√3 
area = 1/2 base × height 
= 1/2 × 30/√3 × 30/√3 
= 450/3 = 150 cm²
