Question

The area of a triangle is 14 square units it has a side length of a and b what is the value of b if a is 1/5

Answer 1

Answer:

140 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Area= 14 square feet

Height a = 1/5 ft

Base b=????

We know that the area of a triangle is given as

Area= (1/2)B*H

substitute

14= 1/2* B* 1/5

14= B/10

cross multiply

B= 140

 

Hence the base is 140 ft
