Hello!

The answer is:

The height of the triangle is equal to 8 inches.

height=8in

To find the height of the triangle, we need to use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle, it's given by the following expression:

Area=(base*height)/(2)

So, since we already know the area and the base, we need to isolate the height from the formula, so, isolating we have:

$Area=(base*height)/(2)\\\\(Area*2)/(base)=height$

We know that:

$Area=24in^(2) \\base=6in$

Now, substituting we have:

height=(Area*2)/(base)

height=(24in^(2) *2)/(6in)=8in

Hence, we have that the height of the triangle is equal to 8 inches.

height=8in

Have a nice day!

Answer:

8 inches

Explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula

A = 1/2 bh where b is the length of the base and h is the height

A = 24 and b = 6

24 = 1/2 (6) * h

24 =3h

Divide each side by 3

24/3 = 3h/3

8 =h

The height is 8 inches
