Correct Answer: $4$


Solution : It is known that the area of the equilateral triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2$
Where $a$ is the side of the equilateral triangle.
It is given that the area of the equilateral triangle is $4\sqrt{3}$ cm$^2$
So, $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2$ = $4\sqrt{3}$
⇒ $a^2 = 16$
⇒ $a = 4$ cm
Hence, the correct answer is 4.
