Question

Area of a triangle is 35 cm2. If its height is 14cm, then its base is

a)5 cm                    b)    6 cm                c) 7 cm                   d) 8 cm ​

Answer 1

Answer:

✯5 = b✯

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

✯ Area of triangle = ½ × b × h ✯

35 = ½ × b × 14

35 = 7 × b

35/7 = b

5 = b

Answer 2

Answer:

Given,

Area of triangle, A =  35 cm²

Height, h = 14 cm

We know that,

Area of triangle =  $\frac{1}{2}$  × Base × Height

           A = $\frac{1}{2}$  × b × h

           35 =  $\frac{1}{2}$ ×  b × 14

           35 = b × 7

            b = $\frac{35}{7}$

            b = 5 cm

     Answer ⇒ Base = 5 cm (a)
