Answer:
v = 17.4 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a triangle with height (red dotted line) given.
The area of a triangle is given by the formula:
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]
Where
A is the area
b is the base length
h is the height
Given height = 12, and
area = 104.4
THe base is labeled as "v", so we find v by replacing into formula:
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh\\104.4=\frac{1}{2}(v)(12)\\104.4=6v\\v=\frac{104.4}{6}\\v=17.4[/tex]
The base, v, is 17.4 meters
