The area of a triangle was 24 square inches. the base of the triangle is 12 inches. what is the height of the triangle

h = 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x b x h

Given

Area = 24 square inches

Base b = 12 inches

Height h = ?

Therefore

24 = 1/2 x 12 x h

24 = 12/2 x h

24 = 6 x h

Divide both sides by 6

24/6 = 6/6 x h

4 = h

h = 4 inches
