If you draw the figure, RT and SQ turn out to be the diagonals of the rectangle since diagonals of a rectangle are equal, so RT = SQ ==> 4x - 16 = x + 5 ==> 4x - x = 5 + 16 ==> x = 21/3 = 7

The height of a triangle is 2 centimeters greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 161.5 square centimeters. Find the
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

H = 19 cm

B = 17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (H x B) / 2 (formula for the area of a triangle)

161.5 = ((X + 2)(X)) / 2 (with X acting as the base)

323 = X^2 + 2X

0 = x^2 + 2x - 323

(X - 17) (X + 19) = 0

X = 17 or X = -19

You can't have a negative number as a side length so -19 doesn't work.

Because the height is larger than the base, you add the 2 to the one you will use as the height. Then just add the units (cm) because the area is in cm squared.
