Question

The side length of an equilateral triangle is 6 cm. What is the height of the triangle? 2

Answer 1

h=3√3 cm

Explanation:

An equilateral triangle has 3 Equal sides

The height of an equilateral triangle with side a =a√3/2

That is,

h=a√3/2

Where,

h=height of the equilateral triangle

a=side length

From the triangle given,

a=6cm

Therefore,

h=6√3/2

=3√3

h=3√3 cm
