Given:

The sum of all three sides of an equilateral triangle = 66√3 cm

Formula used:

For an equilateral triangle:

Perimeter = 3 × Side

Height = (√3/2) × Side

Calculation:

Perimeter = 3 × Side

⇒ 66√3 = 3 × Side

⇒ Side = (66√3) / 3

⇒ Side = 22√3 cm

Height = (√3/2) × Side

⇒ Height = (√3/2) × 22√3

⇒ Height = (√3 × √3 × 22) / 2

⇒ Height = (3 × 22) / 2

⇒ Height = 66 / 2

⇒ Height = 33 cm

∴ The correct answer is option (4).
