Question

How do fine the base of a triangle

Answer 1

First, you must substitute numbers or letters for area and height. You put the area before the equal sign and replace the height with a letter/variable. Multiply the height by .5 (1/2). Then, solve for the base.

Answer 2

Substitute numbers for area and height.

Put the area before the equals sign, and replace the letter h with the height.

...Multiply 1/2 by the height.

Calculate 1/2 x h/1 to get h/2. ...Isolate the b variable.

To isolate b, divide the entire equation by the number on the same side of the equation as b.

...Solve for b.
