The area of a triangle can be calculated using the following equation:
A = 1/2 (B x H)
Where B is the dimension of the base and H is the height of the triangle.
Since the area is known and the dimension of the base is also known, substitute the values into the equation to find the height:
3.6 cm2 = 1/2 (6 cm) (H)
Solving yields an answer of 1.2 cm. Hence the height is 1.2 cm.
