Given:

The area of the triangle is 150 square ft.

The base length of the triangle is 20ft.

To find:

The height of the triangle.-

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the area of the triangle formula,


A=(1)/(2)* base* height

Substituting the base and area we get,


\begin{gathered} 150=(1)/(2)*20* h \\ h=(150*2)/(20) \\ h=15ft \end{gathered}

Therefore, the height of the triangle is 15ft.

Final answer:

The height of the triangle is 15ft.
