Hello!
[tex]\large\boxed{b = 10in}[/tex]
Formula for the area of a triangle:
A = 1/2(bh)
We are given the height and area, so we can plug those into the formula to solve for b:
90 = 1/2(18b)
Multiply both sides by 2:
180 = 18b
Divide both sides by 18:
b = 10 inches.
Answer:
10inches is equal to the base
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for finding the area of a triangle is
½bh which is half times base times height
-base is unknown, height is 18 and area is 90.
-½x*18=90
½of 18 is 9
1x*9=90
9*x=9x
therefore:9x=90
we devide both sides by the co-efficient of x which is 9
9 dividing 90 is 10.
therefore x is equal 10
