The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 60 m, then its area is______
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let each side of an equilateral be x.
Then, perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 60 m
x + x + x = 60 ⇒ 3x = 60 ⇒ x = 60/3 = 20 m
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4 (Side)2 = (√3/4) x 20 x 20 = 100 √3 m2
Thus, the area of triangle is 100√3 m2.

Here, it is given in the question that the perimeter of an equilateral triangle 60 m. Now the question has asked us to find out the area of the given triangle.
⛤ HOW TO DO:-
Here, to find the area of the triangle first of all we have to find the side of the triangle by dividing the perimeter of the triangle by 3 as equilateral triangle have 3 equal sides. After dividing we will get the side of the triangle. Then by applying the formula of area of equilateral triangle we will get the answer.
