Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since height, h, is the unknown, use the formula from part C to find the height:

h = 2A/b

= 2(24 square inches) / 12 inches

This formula for the height is the easiest to use because all that’s required is to substitute the values for the area (24) and base (12) and solve. So, the height of the triangle is 4 inches.

= 4 inches
