Answer:

The length of x is 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to know the formula to calculate the area of ​​a triangle:

a = area = 5u²

h = heigth = 5u

b = base

a = (b * h) / 2

we replace with the known values

5u² = (b * 5u) / 2

5u² * 2 = b * 5u

10u² / 5u = b

2u = b

The length of x is 2 units

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = 1/2 base * Height

height = 5

let base be x

hence

5= [tex]\frac{1}{2} x[/tex] * 5

5 = [tex]\frac{5}{2} x[/tex] multiply both sides by 2

10 = 5x

x = 10 /5 = 2

x= 2
