Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

Perimeter of a equilateral TRIANGLE =18cm

To find:-

Area of the triangle

Solution:-

Let the SIDES of triangle =a

As we KNOW that

in a equilateral triangle are EQUAL

So

{\boxed{Perimeter=3a}}

  • Substitute the values

{:}\longrightarrow3a=18

{:}\longrightarrowa={\dfrac {18}{3}}

{:}\longrightarrow{\boxed{a=6cm}}

Now,

as we know that in a equilateral triangle

{\boxed{Area={\dfrac {{\sqrt {3}}}{2}}a {}^{2}}}

  • Substitute the values

{:}\longrightarrowArea={\dfrac {{\sqrt {3}}}{2}}×{6}^{2}

{:}\longrightarrowArea={\dfrac {{\sqrt {3}}}{{\cancel{2}}}}×{\cancel {36}}

{:}\longrightarrowArea={\sqrt {3}}×18

\therefore{\underline{\boxed{\bf {Area=18 {\sqrt {3}}cm {}^{2}}}}}
