Answer:

height is 5 units

Explanation:

We are required to determine the height of a triangle that has an area of 30 square units and a base measuring 12 units.

The formula for the area of a triangle is given as;


Area=(1)/(2)*base*height

We plug in the given values and solve for the height;


30=(1)/(2)*12*height\\\\30=6*height\\height=5
