Question

Area of a triangle is 1400 cm² the base of the triangle is 5 times the height what is the height of the triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

≈23.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Height ---> x

base ---> 5x

Formula for area of triangle: (base*height)/2

((5x)(x))/2 = 1400

$5x^{2}$/2 = 1400

$5x^{2}$ = 1400 · 2 = 2800

$x^2$ = 2800/5 = 560

x= √560 ≈ 23.66
