Question

The height of a triangle is 8 m less than its base. The area of the triangle is 42 m². The situation can be represented by the equation 12b(b−8)=42, where b is the length of the base in meters.

What is the length of the base?

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
