Find the height of an equilateral triangle having side 2a.

योग

उत्तर

Since, ABC is an equilateral triangle, AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC.

According to Pythagoras theorem,

In ∆ABD,

AB2 = AD2 + BD2

∴ (2a)2 = AD2 + a2

∴ 4a2 − a2 = AD2

∴ AD2 = 3a2

∴ AD = `sqrt3`a

Hence, the height of an equilateral triangle is `sqrt3`a
