A triangle has an area of 30 square centimeters.
If the height of the triangle is 5 1/2 centimeters, what is the base length?

Respuesta :

Answer: 10.9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find the area of a triangle is

Base x height x 1/2 = area

Since you are given the area, rearrange or “do the opposite” to find the base

(Area x 2 ) / height = base

30 x 2 = 60

60/ 5.5 = 10.9

Hope this helped :)
