Question

find the height of a triangle whose area is 65 cm and whose base is 13 cm

Answer 1

"The area of a triangle is can be calculated using the base of height of the triangle.

Area of the triangle is given by the equation A = ½ ( b * h )

Where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle.

In the question we have A = 65 cm2 and b = 13 cm

65 = ½( 13 * h)

h = 130/13

h = 10cm

"

Answer 2

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Given that the area of the triangle = 65 cm²

And the base of the triangle = 13 cm

Find the height:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

65 = 1/2 x 13 x height

65 = 13/2 x height

height = 65 ÷ 13/2

height = 10 cm

Answer: The height of the triangle is 10 cm
