We know that the formula for the Area, A of a triangle is given as:


A=(1)/(2)* base* height.....(Equation 1)

In our question we already know that
A=202.5 mm^2 and


height=15 mm

Substituting these values in (Equation 1) we will get:


(1)/(2)* base* 15=202.5

Multiplying both sides by 2 we will get:


15* base=405

In-order to find base we will isolate it by dividing both sides by 15. Thus, we get:


base=(405)/(15)=27 mm

Thus, the answer is, base=27 mm.
