What is the height of the following triangle if the area is 60 square meters? Do not round your answer.

The height of the triangle, h, is 8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle of base b and height h is A = (1/2)(b)(h).

Here b = 15 m and A = 60 m^2.  We want the measure of the height, h.

First we solve the area equation (above) for h:  2A = bh, or h = 2A/b,

and then substitute the given values for b and A:

       2(60 m^2)

h = = 8 m

          15 m

The height of the triangle, h, is 8 m

answer: two angles are called supplementary if they add up to 180°. example: the two angles (140° and 40°) are supplementary because they add up to 180°.
