First convert the base to the same kind of units you have defined the area in (but linear); 24 inches. The area of a triangle is half of the base times the height .
12 (half the base) times what is 144?
12, the height (altitude) of the triangle is 12 inches (one foot).
The dimensions are: altitude 12 inches and base 7 inches Check: 0.5*12*7 = 42 square inches
A base is normally a line and therefore has no area; the area of a triangle is half of base x altitude.
The area of triangle is : 35.0
Since the area is equal to 1/2 of the product of base and altitude, the base of this triangle must be 4 meters.
area of triangle: area equals base times height devided by two! a=bxh/2 a=40in b=20in THE ANSWER IS 4in as the height!
The dimensions are: altitude 12 inches and base 7 inches Check: 0.5*12*7 = 42 square inches
70 square inches
Area = 0.5*6*8 = 24 square inches
Area = 1/2*altitude*base Area = 1/2*17.32050808*20 Area = 173.2050808 square inches The altitude or height was worked out by using Pythagoras' theorem.
Area = 0.5*Base*Altitude = 0.5*20*5 = 50 square inches.
32 inches squared. 16 times 4 is 64, and divide by two since it is a triangle. You get 32 and it has to be inches squared because it is area.
A rectangle and a triangle have equal areas. The length of the rectangle is 12 inches, and its width is 8 inches. If the base of the triangle is 32 inches, what is the length, in inches, of the altitude drawn to the base?
The area of triangle is : 64.0
A base is normally a line and therefore has no area; the area of a triangle is half of base x altitude.
Area = 0.5*base*altitude
A rectangle and a triangle have equal areas. The length of the rectangle is 12 inches, and its width is 8 inches. If the base of the triangle is 32 inches, what is the length, in inches, of the altitude drawn to the base?

The altitude will be 6 inches in length. The area of the rectangle is length (l) times width (w) or l x w = 12 x 8 = 96 The area of a triangle is 1/2 the base (b) times the height (h), or altitude, and, because the area of the triangle is equal to the area of the rectangle, both will have an area of 96. For the triangle, 1/2 b x h = 1/2 x 32 x h = 96, and 16 x h = 96, and h = 6
