Question

if the area of a right triangle is 9/16 of a square foot and the height is 3/4ft.,write an equation that relates the area tovthe base b,and the height.solve rhe equation to determine base.

Answer 1

Area = (1/2)*base*height

9/16 = (1/2)*base*(3/4)

9/16 = (3/8) * base

(3/8)*base = 9/16

base = (9/16)*(8/3)

base = 3/2

base, b = 3/2 feet.
