Question

Find the height of a triangle with base 4 cm and area 20 cm2.
cm

Answer 1

Given:

• Base of traingle = 4cm
• Area of Traingle = 20cm^2

$~$

Need to Find?

• Height of Traingle

$~$

Solution:

• Let Height (H) of traingle be H cm

$~$

Using formula:

• $\underline{ \boxed { \textbf{ \textsf{Area \: of \: Traingle = 1/2 × B × H }}}}$

$~$

Putting values in the formula:

$\longrightarrow \sf 20 = 1/2 × 4 × H$

$\longrightarrow \sf 20= 2 × H$

$\longrightarrow \sf 20/2 = H$

$\longrightarrow \sf H = 10cm$

$~$

$\therefore$ Height of Traingle is 10cm
