Question

If the area of a triangle with the base 12 cms is equal to the area of the square with the side 12 cm, the altitude of the triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Altitude of the triangle is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of triangle : 1 / 2 x base x altitude

Area of square : side^2

Here,

Base of the triangle is 12 cm.

Side of square is 12 cm.

According to the question :

= > Area of square = Area of triangle

= > ( 12 cm )^2 = 1 / 2 x 12 cm x altitude of triangle

= > 144 x 2 / 12 cm^2 / cm = altitude

= > 12 x 2 cm = altitude

= > 24 cm = altitude

Hence, altitude of the triangle is 24 cm.

Answer 2

ANSWER :-

» Area of triangle =1/2×base×height

» AREA OF SQUARE = (side)²

Here,

Base of triangle is 12 cm

Side of square is 12 cm

A.T.Q :-

» Area of square = Area of triangle

» (12 cm)² = 1/2 × 12 × height

» 144 cm² = 6 × height

» 144/6 cm² = height

» 24 cm = height
