The altitude of an equilateral triangle bisects the base.
So, if the sides of the triangle were l cm, the altitude forms a right angled triangle with sides h, l/2 and hypotenuse l cm.
Then, by Pythagoras, h2 = 3l2 / 4 so that h = l*sqrt(3)/2
and then area = l*h/2 = l*[l*sqrt(3)/2]/2 =l2*sqrt(3)/4

How do you find the area of an equalateral triangle?
Do you mean an equilateral triangle? Then if so then the formula for the area of any triangle: 0.5*a*b*sinC whereas a and b are the embraced sides of angle C And in the case of an equilateral triangle it is: 0.5*any side squared*sin(60 degrees) Alternatively use Pythagoras' theorem to find the altitude of the triangle then use: 0.5*base*height = area

Find the area of an equilateral triangle with side 10?
Finding the perpendicular height of the triangle by using Pythagoras works out at about 8.660254038. 1/2*base*perpendicular height or altitude = area 1/2*10*8.660254038 = 43.30127019 square units
