Answer:

≥ 34 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of triangle, h = 14 feets

Area of triangle is atleast 238ft²

Area of triangle formula, A :

Area = 0.5 * base * height

For an area of atleast 238ft²

238ft² = 0.5 * b * 14

238ft² = 7b

b = 238ft² / 7 ft

b = 34 ft

Hence, length of base needs to be 34 feets or higher
