The area of a rectangle is 210 in.^2. The base of the triangle measures 2 in. more than twice the height of the triangle. Find the measures of the base and height.
------

You used the word, "rectangle" once; but you used the word "triangle" twice. Assuming you have a triangle, then:

height y
base 2y+2
area, 210 square inches


-
Solve for y and then evaluate 2y+2.
