Frequently asked questions

Why is the height s√3 ÷ 2?

Split the triangle down the middle and you get a 30-60-90 right triangle, whose long leg is √3 ÷ 2 times the hypotenuse.

Is an equilateral triangle also equiangular?

Yes — equal sides force equal angles, all 60°, and the converse holds too.

What do I need to enter into the Equilateral Triangle Calculator?

Just 1 value: side length. Every field starts with a realistic example, so you can change one number at a time and watch the result update instantly.

How does the Equilateral Triangle Calculator work out the answer?

An equilateral triangle with side s has area (√3 ÷ 4)s² and height (√3 ÷ 2)s, with all three angles at 60°. It applies the formula A = (√3 ÷ 4)s² and shows the working so you can check each step by hand.
