Asail is in the form of a right triangle that is three times as high as it is wide. the sail is made from 24 square meters of material. what is its
=1/2bh

The area of a triangle as stated above is calculated through the equation, A = ab/2 where a and b are altitude and base, respectively. From the condition given above, a = 3b. The area is therefore,
                              A = 24 m² = (3b)(b) / 2
The value of b is equal to 4 which gives height equal to 12 m.
