  1. Given,

    • The Side of Equilateral Triangle = 4cm

    To Find,

    • The Height of Equilateral Triangle.

    Solution,

    The Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle (P)= 3A

    → The Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle = 3(4cm)

    The Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle = 12cm

    Semi Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle (S) = P/2

    → Semi Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle = 12cm/2

    Semi Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle = 6cm

    Area = Heron’s Formula

    → Area = √[S × (S – A) × (S – A) × (S – A)]

    → Area = √[6 × (6 – 4) × (6 – 4) × (6 – 4)]cm²

    → Area = √[6 × 2 × 2 × 2]cm²

    → Area = 2√[3 × 2 × 2]cm²

    → Area = 2 × 2√3cm²

    Area = 43cm²

    Area = ½ × B × H

    → 4√3cm² = ½ × 4cm × H

    → 4√3cm² = 2cm × H

    → 4√cm²/2cm = H

    Height = 23cm

    Required Answer,

    The Height of Equilateral Triangle is 2√3cm
