Answer / vincent
length of the base=3 times height
b=3h;
h=b/3;
so, 1/2bh=24
1/2b(b/3)=24
(b^2)/6=24
b^2=144
b=12

Answer / kya karoge jaan ke
b=3h.
(1/2)b*h=24
b*h=48
(3h)*h=48
square of (h)=48/3=16
so h=4..........and b=3*h=3*4=12
i think this is a under metric questions

Answer / raktim
height=h
base=b
b=3*h
area=1/2bh
=1/2*b*1/3*b=24
=>b*b=24*6
=>b=12inc

Answer / satya
let h=x
b=3 times of height
i.e b=3h
b=3x
area=1/2bh
24=1/2*3x*x
24*2=3x*x
x=4 i.e h=4
b=3*4=12

Answer / sujitha yenna
given length of base(b)=3* height(h)
given area =24 sq inches
therefore h =b/3
area =1/2 bh
1/2b*b/3=24sq inches
b*b=24*6
b*b=144
b=12.

Answer / kaneez-e-zainab
Area of triangle = 1/2 bh
b=3 times of height, i.e., 3h
h=?
b=3h
A= 24
A=1/2bh
24=1/2*3h*h
48=1*3h2 (when bases are same power should be added)
(poweris 2)
48=3h to the power of 2
h2=16
h=4
b=3*h=3*4=12
b=12
prof
A=1/2bh
A=1/212*4
A=6*4
A=24

Answer / amr.hazem
A=B.H/2
B=3H
A=24
24=3H.H/2
3H^2=24*2
3H^2=48
H^2=16
H=4

Answer / ayappan s
Base = 3* height
(1/2)*3x*x = 24
4x = 48
x = 12
So base = 12
