Question 842291: I'm trying to help my 3rd grader with math homework.
If the area of the triangle is 16 square units, what is the base and height?
I've tried a couple of times, but I get hung up.
16=b*h/2
32=b*h
this is where I get stuck.

32 = base*height, but without any other info you can't find the base or height.
