Ja’Miles designs this sign for a store in the shape of a triangle. His design is 7.5 ft.² in an area, and the triangle has a height of 2.5 feet. What is the length of the base of his sign?

Answer 1

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

Area = 1/2 * base * height

Given that the area is 7.5 ft² and the height is 2.5 feet, we can plug these values into the formula:

7.5 = 1/2 * base * 2.5
7.5 = 1.25 * base
base = 7.5 / 1.25
base = 6

Therefore, the length of the base of Ja'Miles' sign is 6 feet.
