Correct Answer: 30 cm


Solution : Length of median of the equilateral triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × side
Let the side of the equilateral triangle be a cm.
Length of median of the triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × a
⇒ $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ × a = 15$\sqrt{3}$
$\therefore$ a = 30 cm
Hence, the correct answer is 30 cm.
