Answer:
<h2>The height is 4 inches.</h2>
For a triangle, we have Area = 1/2 base times height.
With a = area, b = base and h = height,
we have:
A=1/2bh
We are told that A=10 square inches and b=5 inches, so we need to solve (find h ) for:
10=1/2(5)h
We can get rid of the fraction by multiplying by 2 on both sides:
20=5h
Now divide noth sides by 5 (or multiply by 1/5 , to get
20/5=5h/5 so 4=h
The height is 4 inches.
