Rita is making a small sign in the shape of a triangle. she wants the base length of the triangle to be 4 inches. the area of the sign must be at least 16 square inches. write an inequality that describes the possible heights (in inches) of the triangle. use h for height.

The value of h must be greater than or equal to 8 inches

The minimum value of h is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h ----> the possible heights (in inches) of the triangle

we know that

The area of triangle is equal to

where

b is the base length

h is the height

In this problem we have

Remember that the word "at least" means "greater than or equal to"

so

The inequality that represent this problem is

substitute the value of b

The value of h must be greater than or equal to 8 inches

The minimum value of h is 8 inches

answear:

a

step-by-step explanation: a

both equations and proportions are better.
