Answer:
Consider a as the side of equilateral triangle i.e. a = 8cm
Area of an equilateral triangle = ( √3 ×a²)/4 sq units
So we get Area of the equilateral triangle = ( √3×8²)/4
On further calculation
Area of the equilateral triangle = (√3×64)/4
So we get
Area of the equilateral triangle =√3 ×16
By substituting the value of √3
Area of the equilateral triangle = 1.732×16=27.712
By correcting to two places of decimal
Area of the equilateral triangle = 27.71cm²
