What is the equation to find the base of a triangle?
That's going to depend on how much you know about the other parts of the triangle. For example, if you know the area and the height, then Base = (double the area) divided by (height). If you don't know anything about the other parts to calculate the base with, then you just have to measure it.
How much will the area increase if the height is increased by 3?
If you are referring to the area of a rectangle, it will increase by 3 times the width. The area of a triangle will increase by 3 times 1/2 the base or, in other words, 1 1/2 times the base. (This answer presumes you mean the height increases by three units, such as inches or millimeters, not by three times the original height.)
What us the area of an isosceles triangle when the length of two sides is 7?
You can't tell the area from that much information. In order to find the area you can measure the base and height and multiply them by each other. Then divide the product by two.
If the area of triangle B is 64 times greater than the area of triangle A how much greater is the perimeter of triangle B?
IF triangles 'A' and 'B' are similar (they both have the same angles),then the perimeter of 'B' is 8 times the perimeter of 'A'.If they're not similar, then the ratio of areas doesn't tell you the ratioof perimeters.
In cubic meters how much greater is the volume of a cylinder witgh height 19m and a radius of 16m than the volume of a square prism with height 19m and base 16m on a side?
10) The volume of the cylinder is 19*(π16^2) and the volume of the prism is 19*(16^2). Subtract these to get 10,409 m^3

If I have the height and another measurement of a triangle how do I find the base?
Regardless of whether the "other measurement" is an angle or the length of something, that much information is never enough to define anything else about the triangle.
Write a program to make a triangle?
To draw a random triangle.... Declare six variables.... H1 and V1 H2 and V2 H3 and V3 Then using the random function apply the random to the height of your form - this will be H1 Do the same with the width of the form - this will be V1 -- do this twice more, for H2 and V2 - and then for H3 and V3.. Then draw a line from (H1, V1) to (H2, V2) Draw another line from (H1, V1) to (H3, V3) Draw the last line from (H2, V2) to (H3, V3) -- I can't guarantee it will look great, but it _will_ be a triangle. ==== To draw a specific triangle you need much more coding, involving sine rule an other trigonometry.
What is the area of 9cm base and 6cm height?
It would help to answer the question if there was any information about the shape itself: a triangle, a parallelogram, ... Clearly, that was too much to expect.
How is the height identified on a triangle?
you measure how much it goes up on the tallest side
How much will the area increase if the height is increased by 3?
If you are referring to the area of a rectangle, it will increase by 3 times the width. The area of a triangle will increase by 3 times 1/2 the base or, in other words, 1 1/2 times the base. (This answer presumes you mean the height increases by three units, such as inches or millimeters, not by three times the original height.)
How much is a obtuse triangle?
Greater than 90, less than 180 degrees.

How much material for a triangular sail cost if the material cost 15.95 per square meter and the sail is 21.7 meters high and the base is 15.9 meters long?
Formula for area of a triangle is .5 x base length x height .5 x 15.9 x 21.7 = 171.515 square meters 171.515 x $15.95 = $2751.62 Formula for area of a triangle is .5 x base length x height .5 x 15.9 x 21.7 = 171.515 square meters 171.515 x $15.95 = $2751.62
If the area of triangle B is 64 times greater than the area of triangle A how much greater is the perimeter of triangle B?

You have site in triangle shape but you want to know how much sq feet is that site how to calcute this site?
You multiply the length by the height then divide by two, if you are actually finding the whole area. The above answer is correct, but here is the formula if you need it: A = 1/2xbxh or A = bxh/2 where x is multiplying, b = base, h = height, and A = area.
How much how much degrees are in an acute triangle?
less than 90 degreesAnswer:The sum of the angles in any triangle are always 180o. By definition an acute triangle is one in which all three angles are acute angles (less than 90o). As soon as one angle becomes 90o (right angled triangle) or greater (obtuse angled) the triangle is no longer acute.
