16. If the area of a triangle is 84 sq cm, its base is 12 cm , what is its height?

  • To find the height of a triangle, divide the area by its given base then multiply by two

FORMULA

[tex] \tt Height = 2 \times \frac{a}{b} \\ [/tex]

SOLUTION

  • [tex] \tt H = 2 \times \frac{a}{b} \: \: \\ \tt \: \: \: \: \: \: H = 2 \times \frac{84 {cm}^{2} }{12cm} \\ \tt H = 2 \times 7 \: \: \: \: \\ { \boxed { \pink{\tt{ H = 14cm }}}}\: \: \: \: \:[/tex]

ANSWER

  • B. 14 cm
