Q
Q: If the area of a triangle is 24 square cm and the base is 8 cm, what is the height?
Solution:
The area of a triangle is given by the formula Area = 1/2 * base * height. Thus, 24 = 1/2 * 8 * height, which gives height = 6 cm.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Write down the formula for the area of a triangle: Area = 1/2 * base * height.
Step 2: Substitute the known values into the formula. We know the area is 24 square cm and the base is 8 cm, so we write: 24 = 1/2 * 8 * height.
Step 3: Calculate 1/2 * 8. This equals 4, so now we have: 24 = 4 * height.
Step 4: To find the height, divide both sides of the equation by 4. So, height = 24 / 4.
Step 5: Calculate 24 divided by 4, which equals 6. Therefore, the height is 6 cm.
