Answer:
b = 9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The area of triangle LMN = 36 inch²
The height of the triangle, h = 8 inches
We need to find the base of the triangle. The formula for the area of a triangle is given by :
[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}bh\\\\b=\dfrac{2A}{h}\\\\b=\dfrac{2\times 36}{8}\\\\b=9\ inches[/tex]
So, the base of the triangle is equal to 9 inches.
