Answer:

The area of an equilateral triangle with the side of 6 inches = 15.59 inches²

Explanation:

Formula:-

Area of equilateral triangle = √3a²/4

Where 'a' is the side of equilateral triangle.

To find the area of given triangle

Here side a = 6 inches

Area = √3a²/4

= (√3 * 6²)/4

= (1.73 * 36)/4 = 1.73 * 9 = 15.59 inches²
