If the length of each side of an equilateral triangle of area `4sqrt(3)\ c m^2,\ ` is
`4\ c m` (b) `4/(sqrt(3))c m\ ` (c) `(sqrt(3))/4\ c m` (d) `3\ c m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

"Given : Area of an equilateral `triangle` is `4sqrt3 cm^2`
As we know that area of an equilateral triangle is `sqrt3/4a^2` (let side =a)
`sqrt3/4a^2`=`4sqrt3 cm^2`
`therefore a^2=16`
S0, `a=4`
Hence, option (a) is correct."
