In order to calculate the triangle height, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:

$A=(b\cdot h)/(2)$

Where A is the area, b is the base and h is the height.

So, for A = 207 and b = 18, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 207=(18\cdot h)/(2) \\ 207=9h \\ h=(207)/(9) \\ h=23 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the height is 23 feet.
