The formula for area of a triangle is A = bh/2, where b is the base length and h is the height of the triangle. For this triangle, the base is twice as big as the height; the base and height are represented as follows.

Height: h
Base: 2h

The area of the triangle is 64. Plug all values and expressions accordingly into the formula for area and solve algebraically for h.

A = bh/2
64 = 2h(h)/2
64 = 2h²/2
64 = h²
8 = h

b = 2h
b = 2(8)
b = 16

Answer:
The height of the triangle is 8 units and the base is 16 units.

G. The shape would be similar since dilation at the origin is just a translation and a translation doesn't affect the shape's size or shape.

h. They will still be similar because adding length to each side will just make the shape larger, and if the shape hasn't changed (which it hasn't) it will remain similar.

I. This is simple, just write an equation of the changes you could do the shape and it would be similar. You would have to explain how many you should move and from which sides (should be all sides). It is better for you to do this because there are millions of possible equations, and if you use the same one then it might be striked.
