SOLUTION: The area of a triangle varies jointly as the length of its base b and height h.
If A is 75 when b=15 and h=10, find A when b=8 and h=6.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! The area of a triangle varies jointly as the length of its base b and height h.
A=KBH...WHERE K IS A CONSTANT
If A is 75 when b=15 and h=10,
75=K*15*10=150K....K=75/150=1/2
A=BH/2
find A when b=8 and h=6.
A=8*6/2=24
