Question

The formula for the area of a triangle is A=12bh. Solve this equation for b.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2a}{h} = b$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is:

$a = \frac{1}{2} (bh)$

to solve for b, multiply both sides by 2...

$2a = bh$

then divide both sides by h...

$\frac{2a}{h} = b$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

[A = 1/2b*h]

Divide both sides by 'h'.

A/h = 1/2(b*h/h) [ on right side'h' gets cancelled].

Multiply '2' and 'A'.

A*2/h = b

b = 2A/h.

Hope it helps...
