Ja Miles designs a sign for a store in the shape of a triangle. His design is 10 square feet in area, and the triangle has a height of 5 feet. What is the length of the base of his sign?
The formula for the area of a triangle is:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
In this case, the area is 10 square feet and the height is 5 feet. Plugging in the values:
10 = 1/2 * base * 5
Solving for the length of the base:
10 = 2.5 * base
base = 10 / 2.5
base = 4
Therefore, the length of the base of Ja Miles's sign is 4 feet.
