Given

  • The base of the triangle plot is twice of its height.
  • Area of the triangle is 144 m².

To find

  • Base and the height of the plot.

Solution

  • Let the height of the triangle be x.

Then,

⠀⠀⠀❍ Base of the triangle = 2x

Formula used

 \boxed{\tt{\bigstar{Area_{(Triangle)} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height{\bigstar}}}}

Here,

  • Base = 2x
  • Height = x
  • Area = 144

\tt\longmapsto{144 = \dfrac{1}{\cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2}x \times x}

\tt\longmapsto{144 = x \times x}

\tt\longmapsto{x^2 = 144}

\tt\longmapsto{x = \sqrt{144}}

\tt\longmapsto{x = ±12}

Hence,

  • x(height) = +12

→ because height can't be negative.

Therefore,

  • Height = x = 12 m
  • Base = 2x = 24 m
