Area for triangle: \"%281%2F2%29bh\", where b is base, h is height.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"84=%281%2F2%29bh\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"b=4h\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substitute b into the area equation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"84=%281%2F2%29%284h%29h\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"84=%281%2F2%294h%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"84=2h%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"42=h%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: \"highlight%28h=sqrt%2842%29%29\", \"highlight%28b=4sqrt%2842%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "h=sqrt(2*3*7), not simplifiable further.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
