Answer 1

In the figure we have height of the triangle given with their respective sides.

For base 20ft the height of triangle is given as 12 ft.

The area of any triangle = $\frac{1}{2} base times height$

Are of triangle with base 20 ft and height 12 ft =$\frac{1}{2}$ x20x12=120 square ft.

When base of the triangle is 30 ft corresponding height is h ft.

Area of same triangle with base 30 ft and height h ft is

$\frac{1}{2}$ x 30xh=15h square ft

Both are 120 ft and 15h are area of same triangle

We can write 15h=120

Dividing both sides by 15

h=8ft .
