let base and height be 3x and 4x
1/2 *3x*4x =96
or, 6x^2 = 96
or,x^2 =16
or, x= 4
base= 3×4cm=12cm
height=4×4cm=16 cm

Answer:
Base = 12 cm
hight = 16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimension of a triangle
base = b
height = h
ratio of base and hight = 3:4
let base = 3x
height = 4x
area of a triangle A = b h/2
area = 96cm^2
3x × 4x/2 = 96
6x^2=96
x^2 = 96/16
x^2= 16
x=√(16
=4
base = 3x= 3×4 =12 cm
height = 4x= 4×4 = 16 cm
