In an equilateral triangle, all of the sides have the same length and all of the angles are the same. Since the total of all three angles in any triangle always equals 180 degrees, each angle of an equilateral triangle is one third of 180 degrees, which is 60 degrees. Likewise, the length of each side is one third of the entire perimeter, or 8 in.
The area of a triangle is the product of one half of the length of the base multiplied by the height. The height of the triangle is the length within the triangle of the perpendicular bisector of the base. Since an equilateral triangle is symmetrical, the bisector bisects the entire triangle into two equal 30-60-90-degree right triangles. In all 30-60-90-degree right triangles, the length of the hypotenuse is always double the length of the shortest side, and the length of the other side is equal to the length of the shortest side times the square root of 3. So if the length of half of the base is four inches and the height is four inches times the square root of three, the area of the triangle is exactly (sixteen times the square root of three) square inches, which is approximately 27.713 square inches rounded to three decimal places.
3.897 square inches.
Area of equilateral triangle: 0.5*12*12*sin(60 degrees) = 187 square cm
Area of equilateral triangle: 0.5*7*7*sin(60 degrees) = 21.2 square inches
(6.06 x 3.5) = 21.20 sq in.
the perimeter is 36 and the area is 144
Find the area of an equilateral triangle if its perimeter is 18 ft
Perimeter of equilateral triangle: 24 units Area of equilateral triangle: 27.713 square units rounded to three decimal places
21.20
Area equals 15.59
The minimum perimeter is when the triangle is an equilateral triangle. The perimeter of any other triangle with the same area will be longer. In the case of an equilateral triangle area = (√3)/4 × side² → side = √(4×6.5 cm²/√3) → perimeter = 3 × side = 3 × √(4×6.5 cm²/√3) ≈ 11.62 cm → The triangle has a perimeter greater than or equal to approx 11.62 cm.
You cannot. For a given area, an equilateral triangle will have the smallest perimeter but that perimeter can be increased - without limit - without increasing the area.
Find the area of an equilateral triangle that has a perimeter of 21 inches. Round the answer to one decimal place.
3.897 square inches.
62.354 inches2
The base is one third of the perimeter, half of the base times the height is the area.

It is the perimeter of a triangle times the length of the prism (in square units).
