Answer:
24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
area of equilateral triangle is = _/3 a^2 / 4
according to question
_/3 a^2 /4 = 16_/3
=> a^2 = 16 × 4
=> a^2 = 64
=> a = 8 cm
peimeter of the triangle =3a
= 3×8
= 24 cm

Answer:
24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side of triangle be a
The area is given by √3/4a²
=16 √3
= a² = 4 × 16
=a² = 64
___________________________
As we all know that is ² goes on R.H.S it becomes√
___________________________
So, a = √64As we know that 64 is the square of 8
___________________________
So it gives a = 8
According to the question :The perimeter is given as 3=3(8)=24cm= 24 cm
Hope it helps you :-)
