Option 2: 105.86
Option 3: 92.28
Option 4: 27.72
Correct Answer: 92.28

Question : The height of an equilateral triangle is $7 \sqrt{3}$ cm. What is the area of this equilateral triangle?
Option 1: $36 \sqrt{3}$ cm2

Option 3: $49 \sqrt{3}$ cm2
Option 4: $32 \sqrt{3}$ cm2
Correct Answer: $49 \sqrt{3}$ cm2
