The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height. Given that the area is 43.75 square inches and the base is 7 inches, we can plug these values into the formula to solve for the height:
43.75 = 1/2 * 7 * h
43.75 = 3.5h
h = 43.75 / 3.5
h = 12.5
Therefore, the height of Rainee's triangle is 12.5 inches.
The answer is 12.5 inches.
