Answer:

The base = 8 cm and the altitude = 4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

b = a + 4  where b = base and a = the altitude.

Area = 1/2 * a * b = 16

Area = 1/2 * a * (a + 4) = 16

1/2 a^2 + 2a = 16

a^2 + 4a - 32 = 0

(a + 8)(a - 4) = 0

a = 4 .

b = 4+4 = 8.

Answer:

Interior = 60°

Exterior = 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has 180° in total.

We have 2 angles, 70 and 50

70 + 50 = 120

For Angle U, we do 180-120 = 60

So the interior angle is 60°

A line is straight and is 180°

With angle U being 60°, and being on a straight line, 180-60 = 120

So exterior angle is 120°
