What is the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle with sides of length 6?
The altitude forms a right angle triangle with half the side length and one side as the hypotenuse. Using Pythagoras: (½side)² + altitude² = side² → altitude² = side² - ¼side² → altitude² = ¾side² → altitude = (√3)/2 × side → altitude = (√3)/2 × 6 = 3√3 ≈ 5.2
What is the length of a triangle with an altitude length of 27 feet?
Clarify what triangle side length you are looking for.
How do you find the length of a side of an equilateral triangle when you know the length of the altitude?
Multiply the altitude by [ 2 / sqrt(3) ] to get the length of the side.[ 2 / sqrt(3) ] is about 1.1547 (rounded)
If a triangle has an area of 92 cm and a side length of 16 cm what is the length of the altitude to this side of the triangle?
It is: 11.5 cm because 0.5*11.5*16 = 92 square cm
What is the side of an equilateral triangle if its altitude is 3?
The sides are 2*sqrt(3) units in length.

What is the length of a triangle with an altitude length of 27 feet?
Clarify what triangle side length you are looking for.
Is the altitude of an equilateral triangle equal to a side length?
No. The altitude is smaller.
If the altitude of an equilateral triangle is 14 how long is each side of the triangle?
Each side of the triangle is 16.16581 units in length.
What is the length of a side of an equilateral triangle that has a altitude of 12?
Given an altitude of 12 units, an equilateral triangle has side lengths of 13.9 (13.85641) units.
How do you find the length of a side of an equilateral triangle when you know the length of the altitude?
Multiply the altitude by [ 2 / sqrt(3) ] to get the length of the side.[ 2 / sqrt(3) ] is about 1.1547 (rounded)
If the side length of an equilateral triangle is 5 centimeters what is the length of the altitude of the triangle?
Height = sqrt(3)/2 * length of side So here, approx 4.3301 cm
What is the length of each side of an equilateral triangle when the altitude is 10?
With an altitude of 10 units, this triangle's sides each measure 11.55 (11.54701) units.
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is 8cm . find the side?
The length of each side is 9.2376 cm. (rounded)
What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle?
The altitude of an equilateral triangle is (√3)/2*a. where 'a' is the side of the triangle. It can be just find by giving a perpendicular to the base of the triangle, the base of the triangle become a/2 and one side is a. so by applying Pythagoras theorem we will get the desired formula.
If a triangle has an area of 92 cm and a side length of 16 cm what is the length of the altitude to this side of the triangle?
It is: 11.5 cm because 0.5*11.5*16 = 92 square cm
The length of one side of an equilateral triangle is 11 Find the length of the altitude?
each angle is 60 degrees. If you know trigonometry sin 60 = Altitude/length of side (from Pythagoras) A = 9.526 inch Or, from Pythagoras theorem 5.5 squared + Altitude squared = 11 squared Altitude = 9.526
