You can put this solution on YOUR website! a triangle has an area a=1/2bh. if the area o a triangle is 6sq. cm , find the solution set of all possible whole number values for b & h.
.
If a = 1/2 b h
and "area", a, is 6 sq cm we now have:
.
6 = 1/2 b h
12 = bh
.
The possible set is:
(b,h)=(1,12)
(b,h)=(2,6)
(b,h)=(3,4)
(b,h)=(4,3)
(b,h)=(6,2)
(b,h)=(12,1)
