Question
A triangle with a base length (b) of 24 feet has an area of 252 square feet. What is the height (h) of the triangle? (A = 1/2 bh)
Responses
A 10.5 feet
B 19 feet
C 21 feet
D 28.5 feet

Answer 1

The correct answer is A) 10.5 feet.

We can use the formula for the area of a triangle to find the height (h):

Area = 1/2 * base * height
252 = 1/2 * 24 * height
252 = 12 * height
height = 252 / 12
height = 21

Therefore, the height of the triangle is 21 feet.
