If you know the sum of the base and height of a triangle what is the area?

You can't tell from the information you have. There are an infinite number of triangles,
with different areas, that all have the same sum of (base + height).
The area of the triangle is (1/2) times (base) times (height).
You need the product of (base) times (height). If you only know their sum, you have no way
to find their product.

How do you find the area of a triangle if you know the height and base?
You multiply the height and base then divide by 2.
Can you calculate the base of a triangle if the side and height are known?
If you know the total area and the height are known, you can find the base. Area=(1/2)(base)(height), so if you know the height and area you can solve for the base. So now, Base=Area/(1/2)(height)
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
Area of a triangle with base of 26.5 and perpendicular height of 35m?
Answer:We know that the area of the triangle is ½ *breadth *height.Given: The height of the triangle is 35 m and the base of the triangle is 26.5Therefore the area = ½ (26.5*35)= ½ (927.5)= 463.75Source: www.icoachmath.com
How do you draw a triangle and a parallelogram that each have an area of 20 units?
Do you know the formula for the area of a triangle ? Pick a base-length and a height for your triangle so that 1/2 (base x height) = 20. Do you know the formula for the area of a parallelogram ? Pick a base-length and a height for your parallelogram so that (base x height) = 20. We're having a problem understanding your difficulty. Of course, if you don't know the formulas for 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

What is the area of a right triangle and the hypotenuse is 10.6?
Area = 0.5*base*height You will need to know the base or height then use Pythagoras theorem to find the base or height.

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 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.
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.
How do you find the base of a triangle if you have the height and area?
the formula for area of a triangle is one half base times heightA = 1/2 * base * heightIf you know the area and height, divide the area by 2 times the height.b = a/2h
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.
