An equilateral triangle has an altitude of length 16 cm. Find the length of each side.Please put an explanation, thanks :)

Answer»

Answer:

18.4752086141 cm

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

Each angle of an EQUILATERAL triangle is 60°

sin 60° = \frac{h}{x}

⇒ x = \frac{h}{sin 60}

⇒ x = 2h/√3

Using the formula, we GET:

x = 2×16/√3

  = 32/√3

  = 18.4752086141
