The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Concept: The area of an equilateral triangle of side \(a\) is \[ A=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2 \]

Step 1: Use the given area.
\[ \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2=4\sqrt{3} \] \[ a^2=16 \] \[ a=4\ \text{cm} \]

Step 2: Find the perimeter.
\[ P=3a=3(4)=12\ \text{cm} \] center minipage0.35

Perimeter \(=12\) cm minipage center
