The area of a traingle is 10 sq in and the height is 5 in find the base

Area = 10 sq height = 5 so u would dived to find the base and the base would be 2

Answer: 4in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have several formula for finding the area of a triangle. But with this, since it involves the base and the height, we use

Area of triangle. = (1/2) bh, where b = base and h = height. The area us given and the height, to find the base, we now equate the formula above with the value which is 10 and find the base. Now

(1/2) x b x h = 10in²

b x h = 20

b x 5 = 20

5b. = 20

Therefore,

b = 4in.
