Answer:
1558.84 cm² is the area
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of △ABC= 180cm. So the side of an equilateral triangle is 60cm. Area of the equilateral triangle is given as Area = √34x2 where x is the side of the equilateral triangle. Hence the area of the triangle is 1558.84cm2.

ANSWER:
Given:
- Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 180cm
To Find:
- Area of the triangle
Solution:
We know that, perimeter is the sum of all sides of a polygon.
Also, all the sides have equal lengths in an equilateral triangle.
Let the length of each side of the triangle be x cm.
So,
⇒ x + x + x = 180cm
⇒ 3x = 180 cm
⇒ x = 180/3 cm
⇒ x = 60cm
We know that,
Area of an equilateral triangle = (√3)/4 * a²
Here, a is the length of each side.
So,
⇒ Area = (√3)/4 * (60)²
⇒ Area = (√3)/4 * 3600
⇒ Area = 900√3 cm² ≈ 1558.85 cm²
Formulae Used:
- Perimeter = Sum of all sides
- Area of equilateral triangle = (√3)/4 * (a)² , a is the length of each side.
