The area would be about 83.14.

You can find this by starting with the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle:

A =
(√(3))/(4) S^(2)

In this equation, A is the area and S is the side. So we'll just plug in the value.

A =
(√(3))/(4) S^(2)

A =
(√(3))/(4) (8√(3))^(2)

A =
(√(3))/(4) 24

A = 83.14
