Question

For a triangle with an area of 96 square cm and a height of 8 cm, calculate the base​

Answer 1

area of triangle: 1/2 base x height

96=1/2 base x 8

96= 1/2 x 8 x base

96= 4 x base

base= 96/4

base=24

Answer 2

the answer is 12

Explanation:

Remember, double the area and then divide by the known side length. To calculate the area of a triangle, we multiply the base times the height and divide by 2. If you are given the area, follow the steps backwards
