Question
If the height to base ratio of a triangle ABC is 3:4 and the area is 864 square units. Determine the height and base of this triangle.
Hint:
Let base and height be 4x and 3x
The correct answer is: 48 units
It is given that height to base ratio is 3 : 4
⇒ Height, h = 3x and Base, b = 4x
Area of triangle = 
864 = 
864 = 6x2
144 = x2
12 = x
Height = 3x = 3(12) = 36 units and Base = 4x = 4(12) = 48 units
