Question

the formula used to find the area of a triangle is A= 1/2bh, where is A of the triangle, b is the length of the base of the triangle, and h is the hight of the triangle. solve the expression for h

Answer 1

If you are doing a literal equation all you have to do is isolate the h.
First get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by 2.
2a=bh
Then divide both sides by b.
2a/b=h
Hope this helps!

Answer 2

A=(1/2)bh solving the expression for h means getting h on one side by itself
A/(1/2)b=h so you need to divide both sides by 1/2 and b
2A/b=h you divided by a fraction so you multiply by the reciprocal which is 2
b stays on the bottom so you have 2A over b = h
