Equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all its sides are equal.

Given:
side = 10 cm

Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4  a²

1st: a = 10 ; A = 43.3 cm²
2nd: a = 5 ; A = 10.83 cm²
3rd: a = 2.5 ; A = 2.71 cm²
4th: a = 1.25 ; A = 0.68 cm²
5th: a = 0.625 ; A = 0.17 cm²
6th: a = 0.3125; A = 0.042 cm²
7th: a = 0.15625; A = 0.011.cm²

Summation: a1/1 -r ; a1 = 43.30 ; r = 0.25

43.30 / 1 - 0.25 = 43.30/0.75 = 57.73 cm²

The sum of the areas of the triangles if the process is continued without end is 57.73 cm²
