A triangular bandana has an area of 70 square inches. The height of the triangle is 8 3/4 inches. Write and solve an equation to find the length of the base of the triangle. Please show how you got the answer



Answer :

iGreen
A = 1/2 * b * h

Plug in what we know:

70 = 1/2 * b * 8 3/4

Simplify(Multiply 1/2 * 8 3/4 * b):

70 = 4.375b

Divide 4.375 to both sides:

b = 16


B=16

is the short answer for U
