How do you calculate the base of the right triangle given the height and the opposite angle?

By using the tangent ratio of: opposite/tangent angle = adjacent which is the base


How do you calculate the square meters of a triangle?

The area of a triangle is base x height / 2. Height should be perpendicular to base.


Calculate the area of a triangle?

If it is a right angled triangle then it is 0.5*(base)*(height) of the triangle half the base times by the height imagine it as half the area of a rectangle of the two triangles * * * * * That is all very well if you know the base and the height. Sometimes you know only the three sides. Or only two sides and an angle, or two angle and a side. There are a whole host of formulae for such circumstances.


How do you find the height of a right triangle with only knowing its base and base angle?

You have to use trig. If the base angle is a and base b, the height is b tan(a).


Can you work out the area of any triangle using bxh divided by 2?

Yes, that works for any triangle. The height always has to be at a right angle to the base. If there is an angle over 90 degrees, you may have to extend the base.Yes, that works for any triangle.

With a 30 deqree angle at the top of a triangle and a height of 15


How do you calculate sides of triangle if you know the height and base?

If the triangle is right-angled then you should be able to use Pytharoras Theorem to calculate the missing side otherwise you need an angle to be able to use trigonometry


When you use a formula to calculate the area of a triangle does it matter which base - height pair you use.?

The side you use as the base does not matter. What does matter is that the height is the perpendicular distance between this side and the other vertex. If there is a right angle in the triangle, then use the two sides next to it as the base and height. Otherwise a bit of trigonometry will be required to work out the height of the triangle if it is not given.


How do you calculate the height of right triangle given the base?

If you're only given the base, then you can't calculate the other leg. If you have any one of the following, then you can calculate all of the parts of the triangle: -- length of the other leg -- length of the hypotenuse -- size of either acute angle
