Question

The area of a triangle is 24 m² the height of the triangle is 6 m what is the length of the triangles base

Answer 1

8 meters

Explanation:

The formula for the area of the triangle is
`(Base * Height)/(2)`. You can do inverse operations to find the length.

You can solve this question algebraically.

24 =
`(l * 6)/(2)`

Multiply both sides by two to isolate the variable.

48 = l · 6

Divide both sides by 6.

`(48)/(6)` = 8

l = 8

So, the length of the triangle is 8 meters.
