19.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the traingle = 230.86 sq. inches

Height of the triangle = 23.8 sq. inches

We have,

Area of the triangle = 1/2bh

where,

b = base of the traingle

h = height of the triangle

Now, substituting the given info we get,

230.86 = 1/2b (23.8)

230.86 × 2/23.8 = b

b = 19.4

So, the base of the triangle is 19.4 inches
