The answer is 40. Area of triangle = ba/2 where b = length of the base, a = length of corresponding height. Therefore, 10 X 8/2 = 80/2 = 40.

A triangle has an area of 144 sq inches and its base is 2 ft long What is the altitude of the triangle?

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).


What is the area of a triangle with the base of 3 feet and the height of 1 foot 6 inches?

1 foot 6 inches = 1.5 feetArea of a triangle = .5(base)(height), in this case: .5(3)(1.5), which is 2.25 feet.2.25 feet is equal to 2 feet and 3 inches.

What is the altitude of an eqilateral triangle having base equal to 3 foot?

An equilateral triangle is baisicaly 2 30-60-90 tiangles put together. The height of the longer lg of a 30-60-90 triangle is always root 3 times the length of the shorter leg. Because the length of the shorter legs of the 2 30-60-90 triangles in the equilateral triangle is half the base, the altitude is 31/2/2*b where b is the base.


How many cubic feet of soil are in a Triangle with 8 foot sides and 3.5inches deep?

To find the volume you would first find the area of the triangle (in square feet.) The area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height. If the triangle is equillateral (all sides the same length) and the sides are eight feet long, then the equation is (1/2) x (8ft) x (8ft) = 32 square feet. Then you take this area and multiply it by the depth. The depth is (3.5/12) because it is in inches rather than feet. So, your answer is 9 1/3 cubic feet.

The length of each side of a square prism is one foot find the total surface area of this objwct?

A square prism, also known as a rectangular prism with a square base, has a square base and four rectangular sides. Given that each side of the square base is 1 foot, the area of the base is (1 \text{ ft} \times 1 \text{ ft} = 1 \text{ ft}^2). The total surface area of the prism includes the area of the two square bases and the four rectangular sides. Thus, the total surface area is (2 \times 1 \text{ ft}^2 + 4 \times (1 \text{ ft} \times h)), where (h) is the height; if the height is also 1 foot, the total surface area is (2 + 4 = 6 \text{ ft}^2).
