Question

Need help on figuring this out. 8th grade level math

Answer 1

As given by the question

There are given that the equilateral triangle

Now,

From the formula to find the altitude :

`h=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}a`

Then,

Put the value of a = 8 into the above formula

So,

`\begin{gathered} h=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}a \\ h=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}*8 \\ h=4\sqrt[]{3} \end{gathered}`

Hence, the altitude of the given equilateral triangle is shown below:

`4\sqrt[]{3}`
