Answer 1

Answer:

Mark me Brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

Base of a triangle is 4 cm longer than its altitude.

Area of triangle =48 cm

Let base of triangle =b

Altitude =b−4

Area = 21×b×h=48

21×b×(b−4)=48

b = 21−4b−96=0

(b−12)(b+8)=0

But, base cannot be negative

So, base =12 cm

Altitude=12−4=8 cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

8 cms

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = 44 cm^2

1/2(base) × height = 44

1/2(11) × height = 44

11/2 × height = 44

height = 44 ÷ 11/2

height = 44 × 2/11

height = 4 × 2 (simplified 44 by 11)

height = 8 cms
