Question

Find the height of a triangle with base 4 cm and area 20 cm2.
cm

Answer 1

Given:

• Base of traingle = 4cm
• Area of Traingle = 20cm^2

`~`

Need to Find?

• Height of Traingle

`~`

Solution:

• Let Height (H) of traingle be H cm

`~`

Using formula:

• 
  `\underline{ \boxed { \textbf{ \textsf{Area \: of \: Traingle = 1/2 × B × H }}}}`

`~`

Putting values in the formula:

`\longrightarrow \sf 20 = 1/2 × 4 × H`

`\longrightarrow \sf 20= 2 × H`

`\longrightarrow \sf 20/2 = H`

`\longrightarrow \sf H = 10cm`

`~`

`\therefore` Height of Traingle is 10cm
