Question

The area of a triangle is 60 square feet the length of the base is 12 feet find the height of the triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle  = 60 square feet

$\frac{1}{2}*base*height=60\\\\\frac{1}{2}*12*height=60\\\\height=\frac{60*2}{12}\\\\=5*2\\\\=10feet$

Answer 2

Answer:

10 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is A=1/2bh

where A is the area B is the base and H is the height.

The area is 60 and the base is 12 so the formula will become

60=1/2*12*h

60=6*h

by dividing both ends by 6

10=h

the height of the triangle is 10.

I hope this helps :)
