Answer:

The Answer is x=6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of a triangle is A= 1/2 bh, so we should think of the triangle as half of a square/rectangle. This means the total area of the theoritical Square is 400 sq ft. We then figure out this equation:

12 * 5x = 400

400/12 = 5x

80/12 = x which is equal to 6 2/3.
