How do you find the height of a triangle with a base of 2ft and an area of 28ft cubed?
To find the height of a triangle, write down the Pythagorean theorem, c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the hypotenuse (the diagonal line). Rearrange the theorem to solve for a^2, so a^2 = c^2 - b^2. Plug in the two known side values, c and b. Perform the math. Take the square root of both sides to find the height or a^2.
