Question

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1bh. Solve the formula for h. If the

area of a triangle is 48 cm2, and its base measures 12 cm, what is the height of the triangle?

Answer 1

h=4

Explanation:

A=1bh

48=1x12xh

48=12h

h=4

Answer 2

Answer: H = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation: Since a triangle's area is b times h/2, we know that two times 48 is 96, therefore we can opposite the equation so 12 is the base times the height (8 cm) is 96 divided by 2, there's your answer.
