Question

16 100 4. Find the height if the area is 70 square meters: h 10 mI need help

Answer 1

Given:

Area of the triangle, A = 70 square meters

Base of the triangle, b = 10 meters

To find the height, h, of the triangle, use the area of the triangle formula below:

`A=(1)/(2)* b* h`

Rewrite the formula for h:

`\begin{gathered} 2A=b* h \\ \\ (2A)/(b)=(b* h)/(b) \\ \\ (2A)/(b)=h \\ \\ h=(2A)/(b) \end{gathered}`

To find the height, h, we have the equation:

`h=(2A)/(b)`

Input values into the equation:

`h=(2(70))/(10)=(140)/(10)=14\text{ }`

Therefore, the height of the triangle is 14 meters

ANSWER:

14 meters
