Solution

We are given the length of median of an equilateral triangle by which we can calculate its side. We are asked to find area of triangle in terms of x

Altitude of an equilateral triangle say L, having equal sides of a cm is given by, where, L = x cm

Area of an equilateral triangle, say A1 having each side a cm is given by

Since .So

Therefore, the answer is (c).
