Answer:

Base = 10.4 inches

Height = 5.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the base = x

The height of the triangle = x - 5

Area of the triangle = 52

;Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

; 52 = [x(x - 5)]/2

; 104 = x^2 - 5

;Where x = square root of (104 + 5)

; x = 10.4

;The base(x) = 10.4 in

;The height (x - 5) = 10.4 - 5

= 5.4 in
