Area of equilateral triangle = ?3a2/4 = x ......(i)And perimeter = 3a = y ? a = y/3 ....(ii)Now, Putting the value of a from Eq. (ii) in Eq. (i). we get?3 (y/3)2/4 = x ? x = ?3 x y2/36? x = y2/3?3x = y2/12?312?3 x = y2On squaring both sides, we get y4 = 432x2
Let a = 13, b = 14 and c = 15. Then, s = 1 2 a + b + c =21 (s- a) = 8, (s - b) = 7 and (s - c) = 6. Area = s s - a s - b s - c = 21 × 8 × 7 × 6 = 84 sq.cm
