How do you find the height of h when the area is 261 m squared and the base is 36 m?

Since the area of a triangle is found by multiplying the base by the height, you can find the height by dividing the area by the base. That is,


A = b*h, so when you divide by b, you get


h = A/b


So in your case,


261/36 = h, so


h = 7.25 m.
