Answer:

h = 2A/b

Explanation:

The given area triangle is denoted by:

A=1/2bh

By solving for "h", we're simply asked to make "h" the subject of the formula, that is putting "h" on one side of the equation and all other variable/values on the other side of the equation.

By doing this, we move other variables presently on the right side with "h" and the left hand side of the equation takes them all except "h", then we have:

2A/b = h.
