B = 2H - 3; (B x H)/2 = 10 ie B x H = 20;

2H2 - 3H - 20 = 0

(H - 4)(2H + 5) = 0

Only positive value for H is 4, making B = 5 cm

Area of triangle relates to the area of a rectangle?

Yes. Any triangle can be fitted twice into a rectangle having the same base length and vertical height as the triangle. Consequently, whilst the area of a rectangle = length x width ; the area of a triangle = 1/2 base x height. If we were using the same words this would be 1/2 length x width.
