To find the length of the base of the triangle, you can use the formula for the area of a triangle, which is A = (1/2) * base * height.
Substitute the given values into the formula:
7.5 = (1/2) * base * 2.5
Solve for the base:
7.5 = 1.25 * base
base = 7.5 / 1.25
base = 6 feet
Therefore, the length of the base of Ja'Miles' sign is 6 feet.
Correct response: 6 feet
