A landscaping company is laying out a triangular flower bed. The height of the triangle is 16 ft. What lengths of the base will make the area at least 240 ft^2

it has the same slope and a different y-intercept

hope this : )

a - base

b - exponent

so,

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.
