If it is equilateral then all sides are equal so each side must have a length of 8.
Now the area is 1/2 base x height.
The base has length 8 so 1/2 is 4.
Now we need to find the height. This is equal to 8(square root (3)/2 or
4(square root 3)
So the area is 16xsquare root of 3.
You can also use the formula that area of equilateral triangle is
Length of side square x (square root of 3)/4.
In this case side length is 8 so we have 64/4=16
and we have the same answer of course.
