    h = 4 inches

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Area of a triangle = 1/2 x b x h

    Given

    Area = 24 square inches

    Base b = 12 inches

    Height h = ?

    Therefore

    24 = 1/2 x 12 x h

    24 = 12/2 x h

    24 = 6 x h

    Divide both sides by 6

    24/6 = 6/6 x h

    4 = h

    h = 4 inches
