Answer:

area = 25 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area = 1/2(10)(5) = 25 in^2

The height is 4 inches.

For a triangle, we have Area = 1/2 base times height.

With a = area, b = base and h = height,

we have:

A=1/2bh

We are told that A=10 square inches and b=5 inches, so we need to solve (find h ) for:

10=1/2(5)h

We can get rid of the fraction by multiplying by 2 on both sides:

20=5h

Now divide noth sides by 5 (or multiply by 1/5 , to get

20/5=5h/5 so 4=h

The height is 4 inches.
