Triangle ABC has a height of 8 cm and an area of 42cm².
Calculate the length of BC.

Sagot :

BC must be base

  • Height=8cm
  • Area=42cm^2

We know

[tex]\boxed{\sf Area_{(Triangle)}=\dfrac{1}{2} Height\times Base}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 42=\dfrac{1}{2}8BC[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 4BC=42[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto BC=\dfrac{42}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto BC=10.5cm[/tex]

BC must be base then

Area: 42cm²

Height: 8cm

Base: BC

1/2 × b × h = 42

1/2 × b × 8 = 42

b = 42/4

b = 21/2

BC = 21/2 or 10 1/2

Or 10.5cm
