Question Analysis

The main focus is on using the area formula of a triangle to find the missing height. Given the area and the base,  we need to re - arrange the formula to solve for the height.

 

Key Concept Explanation

The area  of a triangle is calculated by the formula , where  is the base and  is the height. To find an unknown value (in this case, the height), we can re - arrange the formula as . This is based on algebraic manipulation of the original area formula.

 

Step - by - Step Solution

1. Recall the re - arranged formula:

We know that .

2. Substitute the given values:

Given that  and .
