* If any of the shorter sides of an obtuse triangle is chosen to be the base, an extension need to be drawn to this base so that a perpendicular can be constructed from the apex down to this base extension.
There are three sides to a triangle, hence three possible bases. Each base will have a corresponding height that is measured from the opposite vertex or apex+.
A vertex is the point when 2 sides of a figure intersect.

+ A triangle has 3 vertices. 2 vertices defines the length of the base. There remains one vertex that is not touching the base. This vertex is opposite to the base (or base extension) and it is referred to as the apex.

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude(height)On putting given values, we get45cm2 = 1/2 x 6cm x height(altitude)cm45 = 3 x altitudealtitude = 15 cmAnswer to the question is 15cm.
Its height is: 8 feet
root3a divided by 2
Easy! It's 5.
this is 5cm (:
