the triangle face this time and here's A potential answers
- 00:28
You're feeling all numbers All right Well so to figure
- 00:32
this one out we're gonna have to know a formula
- 00:35
That's Great but uh not just any form This point
- 00:40
Area of a triangle you one half based on time
- 00:43
Okay so now what do we do with this information
- 00:46
Well we have a couple of numbers we can plug
- 00:48
into this formula of ours We're told that the total
- 00:50
area is two hundred ten square units so we can
- 00:53
replace the words area of a triangle with two Ten
- 00:57
and we can tell they looking at the diagram that
- 00:59
the highest fifteen So now our formula is to ten
- 01:03
equals one half base times fifteen And if we divide
- 01:08
to ten by fifteen we get fourteen with magic calculator
- 01:12
there Andi out Fourteen equals one half of face Well
- 01:16
Multiply both sides by two To get rid of that
- 01:18
half their way Get twenty eight equals b or base
- 01:23
So there we go The answer's aye aye is an 00:01:26.617 --> [endTime] ample living space
