Transform the formula. The area of a triangle A can be found with the formula A=1/2bh where b is the length of the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle. Solve the formula for h.
A = 1/2 bh
multiply both sides by 2
2A = bh
to find h,
divide both sides by b
can you finish this?
To solve the formula for h, we need to isolate h on one side of the equation.
The formula is A = 1/2bh
First, we need to get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2, which gives us:
2A = 2 * (1/2bh)
2A = (bh)
Next, we want to isolate h. To do this, we need to divide both sides of the equation by b:
2A/b = (bh)/b
The b on the right side of the equation cancels out, so we are left with:
2A/b = h
Thus, the formula for h is:
h = 2A/b
