Answer:
x = 10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )
Here b = x, h = 6 and A = 30 , then
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 6 × x = 30
3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 10
The length of the base is 25.4 cm.
A triangle is a 3-sided polygon. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Length of the base of a triangle = (2 x area) / height
1 inch = 2.54 cm
30 x 2.54 = 76.20cm
(2 x 76.20) / 6 = 25.4 cm
