A triangle has base 7 m and Area Of 17.5m2. What is the height?HINT: Area of a triangle = { (base) (height)

Sagot :

base = 7 m

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{area = 17.5 m}^2 \\ \text{area of triangle=}\frac{1}{2}bh \\ \text{where} \\ b=\text{base} \\ h=\text{height} \\ \text{area of triangle}=\frac{1}{2}\times7h \\ 17.5=\frac{7h}{2} \\ \text{cross multiply} \\ 35=7h \\ h=\frac{35}{7} \\ h=5\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]

height = 5 meters
