Formula for area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height.
musing the information given you have:
360 = 1/2 x base x 18
First multiply both sides by 2:
720 = base x 18
Now divide both sides by 18:
Base = 720/18
Base = 40 cm
Solution:
Note that:
- Area of triangle = 1/2 x Base x Height
- Area of triangle = 360 cm²
- Height = 18 cm
Using the formula to find the area:
- 1/2 x Base x Height = Area of triangle
- => 1/2 x Base x 18 = 360 cm²
- => Base x 9 = 360 cm²
- => (Base x 9)/9 = 360/9 cm²
- => Base = 40 cm
