Answer:

AD=175.66 units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that ABC is an isosceles triangle in which base is 246 and the non base angle is 70°.

Thus, applying the angle sum property in ΔABC, we get

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

⇒70°+2∠B=180°

⇒∠B=55°

Thus, ∠B=∠C=55°.

Now, Draw AD perpendicular to BC such that BD=DC=123, then applying trigonometry in ΔADC, we have

\frac{AD}{DC}=tan55^{\circ}

⇒\frac{AD}{123}=1.428

⇒AD=123(1.428)

⇒AD=175.66 units

Thus, the length of the altitude is 175.66.
