Example Question - base and height calculation
Here are examples of questions we've helped users solve.
Calculating Triangle Area
The image shows a triangle with a base length of 8.4 inches and a height indicated by a dashed line of 9 inches. To find the area of a triangle, you can use the formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} \] Plugging in the given values: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8.4 \, \text{inches} \times 9 \, \text{inches} \] \[ \text{Area} = 4.2 \times 9 \] \[ \text{Area} = 37.8 \, \text{square inches} \] Thus, the area of the triangle is 37.8 square inches.
Parallelogram Base and Height Calculation
The image shows a diagram of a parallelogram with a base labeled as 15 units and a diagonal labeled as 17 units. There is also an altitude drawn from the top vertex opposite the base downward to the base, forming a right triangle with the base and the diagonal, with the altitude labeled as 10 units. The question asks for the base and height of the parallelogram. The base is clearly labeled as 15 units. The height is the length of the altitude, which is given as 10 units. Therefore: - base = 15 units - height = 10 units
