Question

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

Answer 1

base of triangle is 12cm

and side of square is 12cm

So,

area of triangle = area of square

1/2 × 12 × h = (12)^2

6×h =144

therefore

h = 144/6

h= 24cm
