Question 874289
A Triangle has a base that is six times the length of its height.

If the area of the triangle is 192 cm^2, find the height and length of the base 

area of triangle = 1/2 * b *h

b= 6h

192= 1/2 * h * 6h

192=3h^2

/3
192/3=h^2

64=h^2

h= +/-8

ignore negative

h= 8 cm
and base = 6h = 48cm
