Question

48 POINTS PLEASE HELPPPPPPP....The formula for the area of a traingle is 1/2 bh, where b is the length of base of the traingle and h is the vertical height. Use the formula to find the height of a traingle with a base length of 8 inches and an area of 39 square inches.​

Answer 1

h=39/4

Explanation:

area of a triangle = 1/2(b*h)

base = 8 inches

area =39 square inches

input the values given:

39=1/2(8*h)

multiply the right side by 1/2

39=(1/2)8h

find half of 8

39=1/2*8 (h)

hence,

39=4h

divide both sides by 4

hence,

39/4=h
