Answer:
The height of the triangle is 2.7 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is:
[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times\ height[/tex]
Given:
Area = 2 inches²
base = 1.5 inches
The height of the triangle is:
[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times\ height\\2=\frac{1}{2}\times1.5\times\ height\\ height=\frac{2\times2}{1.5} \\=2.667\approx2.7[/tex]
Thus, height of the triangle is 2.7 in.
