Question

question 1 / 1
the formula for the area of a triangle is ( a = 1/2bh ).
solve for ( h ) in terms of ( a ) and ( b ).
a. ( h = a/2b )
b. ( h = 2a/b )
c. ( h = b/2a )
d. ( h = 2ba )

Explanation:

Step1: Start with the formula

We have the formula for the area of a triangle \( A=\frac{1}{2}bh \).

Step2: Eliminate the fraction

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to get rid of the fraction. So, \( 2A = bh \).

Step3: Solve for \( h \)

Divide both sides of the equation \( 2A = bh \) by \( b \) (assuming \( b
eq0 \)). We get \( h=\frac{2A}{b} \).

Answer:

B. \( h = \frac{2A}{b} \)
