Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Altitude of equilateral triangle = 5√3
Let side of equilateral triangle be x
The altitude is bisector and perpendicular on base...
So a right triangle is formed...
Using Pythagoras theorem,
A^2 = (A/2)^2 + (5√2)^2
A^2 - A^2/4 = 50
(4A^2-A^2)/4 = 50
3A^2 = 100
So, A = 10/√3 units...
