Solution:

Notice that the formula for the area of a triangle is given by :


A=\frac{b\text{ x h}}{2}

Where b is the base of the triangle, and h is the base of the triangle. Then, replacing the data given in the problem, we get the following equation:


88=\frac{11\text{h}}{2}

Now, by cross -multiplication we get:


88\text{ x 2 = 11 h}

this is equivalent to :


176\text{ = 11h}

solving for h, we get:


h\text{ = }(176)/(11)\text{ = 16}

then, we can conclude that the height of the triangle is


h\text{ = 16}
