Answer:

Perimeter= 18cm

3* side= 18

side=18/3

side of ∆= 6 cm

Area of equilateral triangle=

 \sqrt{3 \div 4}  \:  \:  {side} {}^{2}

=√3/4 x (6)^2

=√3/4 x 36

=9√3 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:-

Find the area of equilateral triangle whose perimeter is 18cm.

Answer:-

Given :-

The given figure is an equilateral triangle.

The perimeter of triangle is 18cm.

To find :-

Area of the equilateral triangle

Process :-

As we know that an equilateral triangle has all sides equal and it's perimeter is the sum of all it's sides,so finding one side is only needed.

Then:-

Perimeter = 3 × a (a = each side of the triangle)

18 = 3 × a

3 × a= 18

a = 18/3 = 6

6cm is the measure of each side of the triangle.

Area of the triangle:-

Area =  \sqrt{\frac{3}{4} } × a² \\  \\ ⇒Area =  \sqrt{ \frac{3}{4} } × (6)² \\  \\ ⇒Area =  \sqrt{ \frac{3}{4} }  \times 36 \\  \\ ⇒Area = 15.59cm

∴The area of the equilateral triangle will be 15.59cm

Hope it helps you...
