If you mean "altitude", and by that you mean the height of the top of the triangle above its base, then draw a line from the top of the triangle to the base, at right angles to the base, and measure that line. Alternately, the height of a triangle above its base is twice the area divided by the base length.
Area = Base * Height so Base = Area/Height
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
What do you mean they are the same? The are calculated with different formulae, for a start. The area of a square is length x width. The area of a triangle is (1/2) x base x height, where the height must be measured perpendicular to the base.
I think you mean the volume. It is the base x height x length.
