The length of the base of the triangle can be found by calculating the distance between the points (2, 4) and (6, 4).
Using the distance formula:
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = √((6 - 2)^2 + (4 - 4)^2)
d = √(4^2 + 0^2)
d = √16
d = 4
Therefore, the length of the base of the triangle is 4 units.
