Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is:

1/2×base×height

If you know the area of the triangle and height you can apply the area formula:

A=1/2×base×height

in reverse to calculate the length of the base:

b=2A/h

given, h=60dam

A=18

so, b=2×18/60

b=36/60

b=0.6

The answer is 0.6
