Altitude is another word for a height of a triangle.
Altitude
Yes its perpendicular height or altitude is sometimes calculated out side the triangle depending on its shape.
plz give me a sandwchich
altitude(height)=(Area * 2) /length(Base)
The Formula is Base*Height, or 1/2 Height (altitude of the triangle) * Base (of the Triangle) * height (Height of the prism)
True, because the slant height and the altitude, or height, of the pyramid form one leg and the hypotenuse of a triangle withing the pyramid, and the hypotenuse of a triangle is always the longest side- it is not possible for the hypotenuse to be equal to the legs of a right triangle. (It is a right triangle because an altitude is perpendicular to the base of a pyramid.)
The height of a triangle is the point from the base to the upmost point of the triangle. On a right triangle, it is measured on the the longest side that makes a right angle. Thanks for using Answers.com!
Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude(height)On putting given values, we get45cm2 = 1/2 x 6cm x height(altitude)cm45 = 3 x altitudealtitude = 15 cmAnswer to the question is 15cm.
A triangle only has one altitude which is its perpendicular height.
I suppose by "length of a triangles altitude" you mean height. The height of the triangle in question cannot be determined from the information given. In order to determine the height of the triangle, two dimensions must be known.
The height or altitude of triangle: (2*45)/15 = 6cm Check: 0.5*15*6 = 45 square cm
