Question

The height of a triangle is 5 centimeters greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 375 square centimeters. Find the length of the base and the height of the triangle

Answer 1

Explanation:

Area of =375cm^2

Area of =(base(b) x height(h))/2

375=(b x h)/2

Recall that Height(h)-5cm=base(b)

Substituting we get

375=(h(h-5))/
