Question

The formula to find the area of a triangle is:

A=1/2bh

To solve for " h " in this formula, the first step is to:

A.) Subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation.


B.) Divide both sides of the equation by 2.


C.) Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.


D.) Add -1/2 to both sides of the equation.

Answer 1

The correct option is (C) Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A=1/2bh

Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

2A = 2(1/2)bh

Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by "b".

2A/b = h

Hence: h = 2A/b
