    A = 1/2 (bh)

    in this case, b = 2a/h. plug in the values:

    steps

    b = 2a/h

    b = 2 (52) / 13

    b = 104/13

    b = 8 meters

    Length of the base = 8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Area of a triangle = 1/2 (h*b)

    h = height

    b = base

    52 = 1/2 (13 * b)

    Rearrange the equation to get b on it's own

    52 * 2 = 13 * b

    104 = 13 * b

    104/13 = b

    b = 8
