Answer:

To find the height of a triangle given its area and base, you can use the formula:

Area = (base * height) / 2

In this case, we have:

Area = 64 dm²

Base = 1.6 m

First, let's convert the area to square meters since the base is given in meters.

1 dm² is equal to 0.01 m². Therefore, 64 dm² is equal to (64 * 0.01) m², which is 0.64 m².

Now, we can substitute the values in the formula:

0.64 m² = (1.6 m * height) / 2

To solve for height, we can rearrange the formula:

height = (2 * 0.64 m²) / 1.6 m

height = 1.28 m / 1.6 m

height = 0.8 m

Therefore, the height of the triangle is 0.8 meters.

1.Change unit:
1.6 m = 16 dm

2.Count area if triangle
A*H/2 = 16 dm * x/2 = 64 dm2

3. Now it mean the denominator have to be 128 dm (bc this number divided by 2 goves 64 dm2):

16*8/2 = 64 dm2

So answer, the height is 8 dm.
