To find the height (h) of the triangle, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:
A = 1/2 * b * h
Given that the area (A) is 252 square feet and the base length (b) is 24 feet, we can plug in the values and solve for the height (h):
252 = 1/2 * 24 * h
252 = 12h
h = 252/12
h = 21 feet
Therefore, the height of the triangle is 21 feet.
A = 1/2 * b * h
Given that the area (A) is 252 square feet and the base length (b) is 24 feet, we can plug in the values and solve for the height (h):
252 = 1/2 * 24 * h
252 = 12h
h = 252/12
h = 21 feet
Therefore, the height of the triangle is 21 feet.
