Question

The ratio of height. and base of a triangle is 2:3 . area is 27 sq units . then the base is???

Answer 1

Answer:

Height = 6 units

Base = 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height and base be 2x and 3x respectively

Area of triangle = 27

1/2 x b x h = 27

1/2 x 3x x 2x = 27

6x² = 54

x= 54/6

x² = 9

x =√9

x = 3

therefore ,height = 2 x 3 = 6

                 base = 3 x 3 = 9
