Question

find the length of each altitude of an equilateral triangle ??​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilateral triangles have sides of equal length, with angles of 60°. To find the height, we can draw an altitude to one of the sides in order to split the triangle into two equal 30-60-90 triangles. Now, the side of the original equilateral triangle (lets call it "a") is the hypotenuse of the 30-60-90 triangle.
