Sagot :

24m- the triangles are proportionate therefore
base = 3 : 36

height = 2: ?

well let’s simplify it
how many threes are in 36 if they are related to each other otherwise
3 multiplied by what equals to 36
3*_=36? 12

hence we can relate that to the the height as well, 2*12= ?

24 is the answer

if you want it done more algebraically it would look like this -
3. 36
- = -
2. x

cross multiply
3x = 2*36
x= 2*36
——
3

x=24
