STEP 1

We use the formula for the area of a triangle to solve the question.

Area = 1/2 x base x height

where base = 2.7cm

STEP 2

Substituting the appropriate values in the formula

10.26 = 0.5 x 2.7 x height

10.26 = 1.35h

divide both side by 1.35

Height = 7.6 cm

STEP 3

We convert the value of the height to feet

1cm = 0.0328084 ft

therefore, 7.6 cm would give 0.249344ft

STEP 4

We round to the nearest hundredth

Height = 0.25ft

Blank 1 = 0.25

Blank 2 = ft
