Question 13 Marks
Find the area of an equilateral triangle having each side 4cm.
Answer
Area of an equilateral triangle having each side a cm is given by:$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\text{a}^2$
Area of the given equilateral triangle having each equal side equal to 4cm is given by:$\text{a} = 4\text{cm}$
$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(4)^2$
$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\times16$
$\text{A}=4\sqrt{3}\text{cm}^2$

Question 23 Marks
Find the area of an equilateral triangle having each side x cm.
Answer
Area of an equilateral triangle, say A having each side a cm is given by:$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\text{a}^2$
Area of the given equilateral triangle having each equal side equal to x cm is given by:$\text{a} = \text{x cm}$
$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(\text{x})^2$
$\text{A}=\frac{\sqrt{3}\text{x}^2}{4}\text{cm}^2$
