There are many formulae for triangles:

Some formulae will calculate sides given angles or conversely.

Some will calculate the area.

It is not possible to say how you would use a formula without knowing what it is for!

If a triangle has an area of 16 and a base of 4 what is the height?

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = ½bh. We can use this formula to find the height, h, of the triangle: 16 = ½*4*h 16=2h /2 /2 8=h The height of the triangle is 8 units.


How can the distance formula help you determine if the triangle is scalene isosceles or equilateral?

Use the distance formula to calculate the distances between the three vertices. If they are all different, the triangle is scalene, if only two are the same, the triangle is isosceles, and if they are all the same, the triangle is equilateral.


How do you find a vertical distance of a triangle?

To find the vertical distance (or height) of a triangle, you can use the formula for the area of a triangle: Area = 1/2 × base × height. If you know the area and the length of the base, you can rearrange the formula to solve for height: height = (2 × Area) / base. Alternatively, if you have the coordinates of the triangle's vertices, you can use the formula for the area based on those coordinates to find the height.
