Area is a two-dimensional concept. Generally the two dimensions are referred to as length and breadth, or length and width. In such a case it has no height: it does not exist.
However, in the case of 2-D objects in the vertical plane - for example, a poster or a window - the height of its area would be the extent of the poster or window, or whatever, from its top to its bottom.
Area = Base * Height so Base = Area/Height
Area of a triangle = base * height / 2 Therefore the base = Area * 2 / height
The relation between the height of a triangle, its base and its area is given by: Area = 0.5 * Base * Height Therefore, we have: Height = (2 * Area)/ Base.
You can find the height of a parallelogram given the area and base measures by working backwards from the area formula. The area of a parallelogram is found with the formula: Area = Base * Height To solve this equation for Height, we divide both sides by the base. Area / Base = (Base * Height) / Base Simplify: Area / Base = Height
Divide the area by the height
If it is a rectangle then area is height times width
Area = 1/2*Base*Height so Base = 2*Area/Height
Area = 0.5*Base*Height
Area = base * height(height being the vertical measure, not the sloped measure)Area = base * height(height being the vertical measure, not the sloped measure)
1/2*base*height = area height = (2*area)/base
Of a square? (area/height=base) Of a triangle? ({area/height}/2=base) Or of some other shape?
If the shape in question is a triangle, then Area = 0.5 * Base * Height So Height = 2 * Area / Base
