Question

A triangle has an area of 100 sq cm. It’s altitude is 8cm. The length of its corresponding base is ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Base = 25cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

• Area of triangle = 100 cm²

• Altitude (or) Height of the triangle = 8cm

We need to find, the length of the base.

Formula for Area of triangle is,

• ½ × b × h

where, b = Base and h = Height

Solution:

➽ ½ × b × h = 100 cm²

➽ ½ × b × 8 = 100

➽ 4 × b = 100

➽ b = 100/4

➽ b = 25cm

Hence, the length of the corresponding base is 25cm.
