Question

the area of a right angled triangle is 40times its base .what is its height ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The height of the right-angled triangle is 80 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the base and h be the height of the right-angled triangle.

Given that-

The area of the right-angled triangle is 40 times its base.

Area of triangle = 40x

We know that-

$Area \ of \ right \ angled \ triangle \ = \dfrac{1}{2}[base \times height]$

$40x = \dfrac{1}{2}[x \times h]$

80x = xh

$h = \dfrac{80x}{x}$

h = 80 unit

Hence, the height of right-angled triangle is 80 unit.
