B=3H+3
\n" ); document.write( "A=BH
\n" ); document.write( "216=(3H+3)H
\n" ); document.write( "216=3H^2+3H
\n" ); document.write( "3H^2+3H-216=0
\n" ); document.write( "3(H^2+H-72)=0
\n" ); document.write( "3(H+9)(X-8)=0
\n" ); document.write( "H-8=0
\n" ); document.write( "H=8 ANS. FOR THE HEIGHT.
\n" ); document.write( "B=3*8+3
\n" ); document.write( "B=24+3=27 ANS. FOR THE BASE.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "216=8*27
\n" ); document.write( "216=216
\n" ); document.write( "
