the height of a triangle is three feet longer than the base. The area of the triangle is 35 square feet. Find the height andbase of the triangle
You do not indicate if the given area is the total area of the square and the triangle. Or whether they are equal values.
Because they derive the formula from the area of a square. A square is width x height (or base x height). If you cut the square into two equal triangles, you can get the area of only a single triangle by dividing by 2.
Area of a triangle = (1/2) x (base) x (height) Can you handle it from there ?
area of a triangle is given by the formula 1/2 * base *height therefore the area of the following is 1440 unit square
The area of a triangle is (1/2) x (length of the base) x (height of the triangle). You ought to be able to handle it from this point.
The square of the length of the base plus the square of the length of the height will equal the square of the length of the hypotenuse of your right triangle, per Pythagoras. Square the hypotenuse, subtract the square of the height, and then find the positive square root of that and you'll have the base of your right triangle.
It is a square with a right angle triangle attached to it having the same height as the square.
Square feet is a measure of area and does not have to be square. The area of a triangle is 0.5*base*height where the base and height are expressed in feet. (The height is the vertical distance from the apex t the base.)
I think that this is right: if you double the triangle, to form a square and you have the height, then the height shoulc be one side of the square. As it is a square, then the base should be the height, but it will only work if it is an equilateral triangle and all of the sides are the same. good luck, and I do apologize if I am wrong!!!! :)
8.944 feet
The height of the triangle is 6 meters
Area triangle = 1/2 base x height Area square = length x width = 10in x 10in = 100sq in. Area triangle = area square Therefore: 1/2 x 10in x height = 100sq in height = 100 sq in x 2 / 10 in = 20 in
The height of the triangle works out as 9 meters
The area of a triangle is base x height / 2. Height should be perpendicular to base.
-- Square the hypotenuse. (Multiply it by itself.)-- Square the base. (Multiply it by itself.)-- Subtract the square of the base from the square of the hypotenuse.-- Take the square-root of the difference. It's the height of the triangle.

A triangle is half a square The area of a square is height × width(base) So, the area of a triangle is height × base ÷ 2 5×4÷2 = 10
