Jamal's designs a sign for a store in the shape of a triangle his design is 7.5 ft in area and the triangle has a height of 2.5 ft what is the length of the base of his sign

Answer 1

To find the length of the base of the sign, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:

Area = (1/2) * base * height

Given that the area is 7.5 ft and the height is 2.5 ft, we can plug in these values to solve for the base:

7.5 = (1/2) * base * 2.5

Multiplying both sides by 2:

15 = base * 2.5

Dividing by 2.5:

base = 15 / 2.5 = 6

Therefore, the length of the base of Jamal's sign is 6 ft.
