Problem 13 - Entrance Test

If the area of a triangle is 60 cm^2, find its height if the base is 10 cm.

Correct: C

The area of a triangle is given by the formula A = (1/2) * b * h, where A is the area, b is the base, and h is the height. We are given that the area is 60 cm^2 and the base is 10 cm. Substituting these values in the formula, we get 60 = (1/2) * 10 * h, which implies h = 60 * 2 / 10 = 12 cm.
