the area of triangle is equal to the area of rectangle whose length and breadth are 20 cm and 15 CM rest the respect respectively calculate the height of the rectangle if its base measures 30 centimetres
Answers
area of rectangle = length × breadth
= 20cm × 15cm
=300cm^2
given
area of rectangle = area of triangle
we have to find the height of the triangle
we know that
area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
(given base is 30cm)
300cm^2 = 1/2 × 30cm ×h
h= 300cm^2 × 2 / 30cm
h = 20cm

Answer:
Height=20cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle=Area of the triangle
Finding the area of the rectangle to help find the height of the triangle:
Length=20m
Breath=15cm
Area of a rectangle= breath x length
Area=20cm x 15cm
Area = 300cm
Finding the height of the triangle:
Area=300cm
Base=30cm
Height=?
Triangle area formula:
1/2 x base x height= area of a triangle
Substituting the values:
1/2 x 30cm x ?= 300cm
15?=300cm
?= 300cm/15cm
?= 20cm
height=20cm
