Answer:
A ≈ 43.3 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
the area (A) of an equilateral triangle is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}[/tex] ( s is a side of the triangle )
given perimeter = 30 cm , then
s = 30 cm ÷ 3 = 10 cm
then
A = [tex]\frac{10^2\sqrt{3} }{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{100\sqrt{3} }{4}[/tex] = 25[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ≈ 43.3 cm² ( to the nearest tenth )
