If the area of an equilateral triangle is 81 root3 cm sq. Find its perimeter
Answers
Answer:
Perimeter of triangle is 54 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
- Area of equilateral triangle = 81√3 cm²
To find :-
- Perimeter
Solution :-
For finding perimeter, we first need to find the side of the triangle.
Since the triangle is equilateral, so we just need to know one side.
But the side in not given, so we focus on what is given.
Area of equilateral triangle
= 81√3 cm²
It is known that,
Area of equilateral triangle
= (√3)/4 × side²
Therefore,
81√3 cm² = √3 / 4 × side²
side² = 81√3 × 4 / √3
Here √3 and √3 get cancelled.
side² = 81 × 4
side² = 9×9 × 2×2
side = √(9×9 × 2×2)
side = 9 × 2
side = 18 cm
Now, we know the side.
Therefore, perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3 × side
= 3 × 18
= 54 cm
Hope it helps!
Mark me brainliest!
Given,
Therefore the perimeter of the triangle is 54cm.
Note: Formulas :
Area of equilateral triangle = √3a^2/4.
Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3a.
In the above formula a = side.
We require side of a equilateral triangle to find out the area or perimeter.
