The equation \( A = \frac{1}{2}bh \) gives the area \( A \) of a triangle, where \( b \) is the length of the base and \( h \) is the height. Solve this equation for \( h \).
Answer (2)
Solve the equation for h means that we want to obtain only one h on the LHS (or RHS) but it has to be "alone" We are starting with A = 2 1 ∗ b ∗ h /*2 We can multiply both sides by 2 to reduce 1/2 2 A = bh Now we can divide both sides by b to takes b to the LHS, so b 2 A = h - its our result
To solve for height h in the triangle area formula A = 2 1 bh , we first multiply both sides by 2 to get 2 A = bh . Then, we divide both sides by the base b to isolate h , resulting in h = b 2 A .
