Question

BRAINLY ❗️❗️❗️ 1️⃣2️⃣. The triangle shown has an area of 8 15/16 square feet, and 5 1/2 ft base. What is the height, in inches? plzzz help

Answer 1

The formula of area of triangle is

$Area,A = \frac{1}{2}bh$

where b is the base and h is the height .

First we need to convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, and on doing so we will get

$Area,A= 8 \frac{15}{16} = \frac{143}{16} \\ Base, b = 5 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{2}$

Substituting the values of A and b, we will get

$143/16=(1/2)(11/2)h \\ 143/16=(11/4)h \\ 13/4=h=> h = 3\frac{1}{4}feet$
