Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for the area of this triangle is


A=(1)/(2)bh

Since we have a value for area, and we know that both the base and the height are x, then the formula can be rewritten as


27=(1)/(2)x^2

Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction to get


54=x^2

Undo the square on the x by taking the square root of both sides. Rounding to the neareast tenth gives you that x = 7.3
