Answer: 32 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
area of equilateral triangle = √3 /4 ×a²
∴ √3 /4 a² = 256√3
or, a² = 256×4
or, a = 32
Hence, the each side of the equilateral triangle is 32 cm

Step-by-step explanation:
area of an equilateral triangle √3a square÷2
given that √3a square÷4=256√3cm square.
a=256×√3×4÷√3
1024×√3÷√3
rationalising denominator
1024√3×√3÷√3×√3
=1024×3÷3
1024=÷3
= 34.13cm
Consider x as the side of equilateral triangle.
As triangle has 3 sides,
x+x+x=34.13
3x=34.13
x=34.13÷3
x= 11.37666666......cm
which is equal to x= 11 CM ( approximately).
