Equilateral Triangles

The height of an equilateral triangle starts from the mid - point of the base to the ap ex.

Now, if the sides of the equilateral triangle are 16√3 units, then it means we can use pythagorean theorem to find the height h.

Half of the base will be; ¹/₂ * 16√3 = 8√3

Thus, the height h can be calculated from;

h²= ((16√3)² - (8√3)²)

h² = 3(256 - 64)

h² = 576

h = √576

h = 24 units

(B)24 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle MNO is an equilateral triangle with sides  measuring units.

The height divides the base into two equal parts of lengths units.

As seen in the diagram, we have a right triangle where the:

Using Pythagoras Theorem

The height of the triangle is 24 Units.

step-by-step explanation:

this is not possible to solve with the info given.   you need at least an one angle somewhere.
