You multiply the height and base then divide by 2.
How do you find the base and height of a triangle when you only have the area of the triangle?
If you only have the triangle's area, then you only know the product of (base times height) ... it's double the area ... but you can't tell what either of those individual lengths is.
Suppose you know the perimeter and the height of an equilateral triangle explain how you would find the area of the triangle.?
The base is one third of the perimeter, half of the base times the height is the area.
How do you find the height when you know the Area and the base?
in a triangle double area and divide by base in a rectangle divide area by base
How do you find length of base if you already know the area of triangle?
You will need to know the height before you can calculate the base form the area.
How do you find the base and height of a triangle when you already know the area?
area = 1/2 base * perpendicular height you can't find both the base and the height if you only know the area
How do you find the area of the triangle when the height and the area is given?
The area of the triangle is 1/2*bh. So if you know the height and the base just plug in the values.
