If the side of an equilateral triangle is $$2\sqrt2$$​ cm, then the length of the perpendicular drawn from vertex to the side is:

Correct option is B

Given:

Side of the equilateral triangle =$$2\sqrt{2}$$ cm 

Formula Used:

Altitude =$$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times \text{side}$$​

Solution:

Altitude =$$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times 2\sqrt{2} = \sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{6}$$ cm
