Question

The formula for the area of a triangle is a=1/2bh. Which is the equivalent equation solved for h?

Answer 1

`h=(2a)/(b)`

Explanation:

Given: The area of triangle is
`a=(1)/(2)bh`

We have to find an equivalent equation solved for h.

Consider the given formula
`a=(1)/(2)bh`

We first multiply both side by 2, we have,

`2a=bh`

Now, divide both side by b, we have,

`(2a)/(b)=h`

Thus, For h , we have,

`h=(2a)/(b)`

Answer 2

a = 1/2 x b x h

1st step multiply both sides by 2 to get

2a = b x h

2nd step divide both sides by b to get:

h = 2a/b
