Question

the area A of a triangle is given by the formula A=1\2 bh where b is the base and h is the height : solve the formula for the height

Answer 1

h=2A/b

Explanation:

Answer 2

h=2A/b

Explanation:

A=1/2bh

Isolate h by moving 1/2 and b to the other side of the equation.

Divide each side by 1/2,which is multiplying by 2, which gives you 2A=bh.Now divide each side by b, which gives you 2A/b=h. Turn it around.

2A/b=h becomes h=2A/b
