The formula for the area of a triangle is a = 1/2 bh, where b is the base of the triangle, and h is the height of the triangle. what is the length of the base if the area is 32 cm^2 and the height is 4 cm? | also how do you use the area formula (given) to find the length of the base? | if you can: draw a triangle and show the info given in the problem.

check the picture below.

let's see how we can use this information.

by using the equation a=1/2bh, we could easily plug in the values the we already have. we have the area and the height. when we plug them in, we get the equation 32=1/2(4)b which could be simplified to 32=2b. from there, we could divide both sides of the equation by 2 and get 16=b.

steps:

32=1/2(4)

32=2b

32÷2=16=b

b=16

step-by-step explanation: the answer is 27. first multiply .32 by 25 which equals 8. then add 8 to 25 which gives you 33. then you subtract that from 6 since she gave 6 to her brother.
