The area of a right triangle is 49 square inches. The base is twice as long as the height. The formula for the area of a
triangle is A = 1/2 bh, where b is the base and h is the height.
How long is the base and how tall is the height?

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the base is twice as long as the height, set up the following proportion:

.

The area of the a right triangle is equal to , where is a base of the triangle and is the respective height.

To solve for height, set up the equation (substituing :

To solve for base, substitute in the proportion :
