Question

Find the height, round to the nearest hundredth
Area is 72units squared
​

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{h=10(2)/(7)}`

Explanation:

The formula of an area of a triangle:

`A=(bh)/(2)`

We ahve b = 14 and A = 72. Substitute:

`72=(14h)/(2)` multiply both sides by 2

`144=14h` divide both sides by 14

`h=(144)/(14)\\\\h=(144:2)/(14:2)\\\\h=(72)/(7)\\\\h=10(2)/(7)`
