A triangle has base 7 m and area 17.5 m 2 . What is the height?

Answer 1

The formula for an area of a triangle is:

A = 1/2 * b * h

where:

A = area

b = base

h = height

You have values for the area and the base, so you just have to rearrange the formula to solve for the height:

h = 2 * A / b
