Answer:

Height = 10 yd

Explanation:

GIVEN :-

  • Area of the triangle = 32 yd²
  • Base of the triangle = 6.4 yd

TO FIND :-

  • The height of the triangle

GENERAL FORMULAE TO BE USED IN THIS QUESTION :-

For a triangle with base 'b' & height 'h' , its area =
(1)/(2) * b * h

SOLUTION :-


Area = (1)/(2) * Base * Height


=> 32 = (6.4h)/(2)


=> 6.4h = 32 * 2 = 64


=> h = (64)/(6.4) = 10\: yd
