The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height. We are given the base as 4 inches and the area as 7 square inches.
Substitute the values into the formula:
7 = 1/2 * 4 * height
Simplify:
7 = 2 * height
height = 7 / 2
height = 3.5 inches
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches.
