The formula for the area of a triangle is a =1/2bh in which b represents the length of the base Andy represents the height. If a triangle had an area of 192 mm squared and the height is 12 mm what is the measure of the base?

Respuesta :

a=1/2bh
Data:
a=192 mm²
h=12 mm


therefore:
192 mm²=1/2(b)(12 mm)
192 mm²=6b mm
b=192 mm²/6 mm
b=32 mm

Answer: the measure of the base is 32 mm
Equation = 192mm^2 = 1/2×b×12 mm
It's algebra so get the 'b' by itself.
b= 192mm^2 divided by 6 (since half of twelve is six)
then answer 32.
