Answer:

height = 39 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]bh ← b is the base and h the height

Here b = 8 and A = 156, thus

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 8 × h = 156, that is

4h = 156 ( divide both sides by 4 )

h = 39

The height of the triangle is 39 inches

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1/2 bh

1/2 bh = A

1/2 * 8 *h = 156

        8*h = 156 * 2

            h = 156 * 2 / 8

           h = 156/4 = 39

h = 39 inches
