What is the height of
ΔPQR, if its area is
6 in.2 and the measure of
QR is 4 in.?DDDD ffffA.
f3 in.
B.
f1.5 in.
C.
f24 in.
D.
fNone of the above

A
Step 1: Area of triangle = 12 × base × height.[Formula.]
Step 2: 6 = 12 × QR × PS[Substitute the value of area of ΔPQR.]
Step 3: QR × PS = 12[Multiply each side by 2.]
Step 4: 4 × PS = 12[Substitute QR = 4.]
Step 5: PS = 3[Divide each side by 4.]
Step 6: So, height of the ΔPQR = 3 in.
