Two sides of a triangle are 12.8 m and 9.6 m. If the height of the triangle is 12 m, corresponding to 9.6 m, then what is its height (in cm) corresponding to 12.8 m?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 9

Area of a triangle = 1/2 × Base × Height

Let the height of the corresponding side 12.8 m be h 

1/2 × 9.6 × 12 = 1/2 × 12.8 × h

⇒ (9.6 × 12)/12.8 = h 

⇒ h = 9 m
