Answer:
2√3cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side be x.
Now,
area of a equilateral triangle = (√3/4)*(side)^2
APQ
(√3/4)*x^2=3√3
x^2=(3√3)*(4/√3)
x=√12=2√3
Therefore, x=2√3

Answer:
a=3.464 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1:
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3 / 4 × side sq.
3√3=√3/4×a²
Where 'a' is the side of the triangle
√3 gets cancelled
3×4=a²
12=a²
⇒a=√12
⇒3.464 cm
Method 2:
Area of a triangle=1/2×a×h
Area=3√3
Where a is the side (which is the base)
Height of an equilateral triangle, h = (√3/2)a
So substitute h
3√3=1/2×a×(√3/2)a
2×2/√3×3√3=a²
√3 gets cancelled
2×2×3=a²
12=a²
⇒a=√12
⇒a=3.464 cm
