Question

The height of the triangle is 4 meters longer than twice its base. find the height if the area of the triangle is 80 square meters. The height must be ___meters​

Answer 1

Answer:

The height is 20 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

First set up the equation (Area)80=bh/2 then set up another equation, (height) h=4+2b (base). After this you can substitute h in the equation to end up with 80=(b(2b+4))/2 simplify it to get 80=b^2+2b then solve. The base is 8 meters, plug into the formula that we made before and you find the height is 20 meters.

Answer 2

The height is 20 meters
