Question

You can find the area of a triangle using the formula A=1/2bh, where b is the length of the base, and h is the height. Write the equation for b in terms of A and h.

Answer 1

so basically you want
b= something
remember the associative property of multiplication
the equation is
A=1/2bh
put parenthasees
a=(1/2)(b)(h)
divide both sides by (1/2 times h)
a/((1/2)(h))=b

b=
`(A)/( (1)/(2) h )`
