The area of a triangle can be found using the formula A = (1/2) * base * height. We are given that the base of the sandwich measures 4 inches, and the area measures 7 square inches. Thus, we can set up the equation as follows:
7 = (1/2) * 4 * height
Multiplying 4 and height on the right side gives us:
7 = 2 * height
To isolate height, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
(7/2) = height
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches.
Marigold measures the length and height of a triangular sandwich. If the sandwiches base measures 4 inches and it's area measures 7 square inches what is the height in inches of the sandwich
