Answer:
base of triangle = x
and side of square = x
now area of triangle = 1/2 * b * h
and area of square = side * side
now according to statement
1/2 * b* h = side * side
1/2 * x * h = x *x
h = 2 *x*x/x
h = 2x
So altitude = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle=1/2 base *height
Area of square=side*side
Area of triangle=Area of square
1/2*x*h=x*x
h=2*x*x/x
So, h=2x
