Apologies for the mistake in the previous response. Let's calculate the height of the flag.

Since the area of a triangle is calculated using the formula: Area = 0.5 * base * height

Given the base is 3 feet and the area is 9 feet squared:
9 = 0.5 * 3 * height
9 = 1.5 * height
Dividing by 1.5 on both sides, we get:
height = 6 feet

Therefore, the height of the flag is 6 feet.
