The ratio of the lengths of the base and corresponding height of a triangle is 5:3. If the area of the triangle is 270milimeters squared find the base and hight

Answer 1

It is easy...
Area (A)=1/2 *base* height
let x be the proprotional length of triangle
270=1/2*5x*3x
on solving for x^2 =36
x=6
hence base =30 and height =18
