a square with sides equal to 6 has the same area as a triangle with a base of 9. What is the height of the triangle?

Respuesta :

Answer:

h = 8

Explanation:

First find the area of the square:

6 x 6 = 36

So, your triangle area is equal to 36, and the formula for triangle area is (1/2)bh.

36 = (1/2)bh

I would first multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the 1/2.

72 = bh

They tell you that the base is 9.

72 = 9h

Divide both sides by 9.

h = 8
