Question

Find the base of the triangle whose area is 60cm2 and height is 10cm

Answer 1

Area of triangle=( 1/2)* base * height

60= (1/2)*b* 10

b=2*60/10

b= 12 cm .

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence, base of triangle will be 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to question asked,

We have to determine the value of base of triangle.

As per data given in the question,

We have,

Area of triangle = 60 Sq. cm

Height/Altitude of triangle = 10 cm

As we know that,

Triangle is a three sided figure,

Sum of all angles of the triangle is 180 degree.

The area of triangle can be determined by using formula $Area = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times Height$

So, for determining the base of triangle we will put the value of height/Altitude and area given in the question in above formula,

Thus we will get it as,

$Area =\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h\\=>60 = \frac{1}{2}\times b \times 10\\=>b = \frac{60 \times 2}{10}\\=>h = 6 \times 2 = 12\:cm$
