The formula for the area of a triangle is:
A = (base x height) / 2
We know that the base of the sandwich is 4 inches and the area is 7 square inches. So we can plug these values into the formula and solve for the height:
7 = (4 x height) / 2
Multiplying both sides by 2, we get:
14 = 4 x height
Dividing both sides by 4, we get:
height = 3.5
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches.
marigold measures the length and height of a triangular sandwich. if the sandwich's base measures 4 inches and its area measures 7 square inches, what is the height in inches of the sandwich.
