Answer:
36 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Area of triangle =2 1/4 square inches
Area =9/4 square inches
Height of triangle =1/8 inches
We know that the expression for the area of triangle is
Area = 1/2Base *Height
9/4=1/2*Base *1/8
9/4=Base/16
Cross multiply
16*9=Base*4
144=Base*4
Base =144/4
Base=36 inches
