altitude is 2x units
step-by-step explanation:
We know that,
area of triangle = 1/2 × base × altitude
and,
area of square = side × side
Now,
side of square = x
base of triangle = x
Let altitude be 'h'
Now,
it is given that,
area of square = area of triangle
=> = (1/2) ×( x) × (altitude)
=> x = h/2
=> h = 2x
Hence,
Altitude = 2x units

Area of triangle = 1*b*h/2
= hx/2
Area of square = a²
= x²
so , area of square = area of triangle
x² = hx/2
h = x²*2/x
h = 2x
