5√3 units.
In an equilateral triangle the height meets the base at its mid point and can be found using Pythagoras:
side2 = height2 + (side/2)2
⇒ height2 = 3/4 side2
⇒ height = √3/2 side
⇒ side = 2/√3 height
area_triangle = 1/2 x base x height
⇒ 25√3 = 1/2 x side x height
⇒ 25√3 = 1/2 x 2/√3 height x height
⇒ height2 = 25 x 3
⇒ height = 5√3
Its area is 46.8 (46.76533) square inches.
If an equilateral triangle and a square have equal perimeters, then the ratio of the area of the triangle to the area of the square is 1:3.

Area = 1443.376 cm2
I think that this is right: if you double the triangle, to form a square and you have the height, then the height shoulc be one side of the square. As it is a square, then the base should be the height, but it will only work if it is an equilateral triangle and all of the sides are the same. good luck, and I do apologize if I am wrong!!!! :)
Turn the triangle into a square work out the area for that then half your answer ---- For an equilateral triangle, use the formula 1/2 x base x perpendicular height to work out the area.

Area of the equilateral triangle: 0.5*10*10*sin(60 degrees) = 25 Times Square root of 3 which is about 43.301 square inches to 3 decimal places. If it is an equilateral triangle with 3 equal sides of 10 inches then its height would be about 8.66 inches and not 7 inches

If: (-2, 9) and (-7, -3) is the same distance then the height of the triangle is 13 units and each length of the equilateral triangle is 15.011107 units. Area = 0.5*13*15.011107 = 97.572 square units to 3 decimal places
The area of a triangle is one-half the product of the triangle's base and height. The height of an equilateral triangle is the distance from one vertex along the perpendicular bisector line of the opposite side. This line divides the equilateral triangle into two right triangles, each with a hypotenuse of 9c and a base of (9/2)c. From the Pythagorean theorem, the height must be the square root of {(9c)2 - [(9/2)c]}, and this height is the same as that of the equilateral triangle.
An equilateral triangle with a height of 20 has a base of 23.1 (23.09401), not 15. If the base is 15 then the height will be 13 (12.99038).
