As the triangle is equilateral, the height can be calculated using Pythagoras:
side2 = (1/2side)2 + height2
=> height = sqrt(side2 - (1/2side)2)
=> height = side x sqrt(3) / 2
So the area can be calculated:
=> area = 1/2base x height
= 1/2side x side x sqrt(3) / 2
= side2 x sqrt(3) / 4
And plugging in the the side of 13cm:
Area ~= 73.2cm2
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.
Perimeter of equilateral triangle: 24 units Area of equilateral triangle: 27.713 square units rounded to three decimal places

There is only one basic shape for an equilateral triangle. The area can only vary as the length of the sides vary.
In our example, the area of the equilateral triangle is 1/6 of the area of the regular hexagon
Area of Equilateral Triangle A= S2 * (Root 3)/4, where A= Area of the triangle S= Side of the triangle.
30 square cm because it's a right angle triangle
