    Question

    Each side of an equilateral triangle is 33\sqrt3​ cm. Find the altitude of the triangle.

    A.

    5.5 cm

    B.

    4 cm

    C.

    4.5 cm

    D.

    5 cm

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    The side length of the equilateral triangle is 33\sqrt{3}​ cm.

    Formula Used:
    The relationship between the side length s and the altitude h in an equilateral triangle is:

    h=32×sh = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times s

    Solution:

    h =32×33 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times 3\sqrt{3}​​

    h =3×32=92=4.5 cm \frac{3 \times 3}{2} = \frac{9}{2} = 4.5 \, \text{cm}

    Thus, the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 4.5 cm.
