Answer:

5/3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a = (1/2)bh

5/12 = (1/2)(1/2)h

5/12 = 1/4h

Multiply bith sides by 4

20/12 = h

h = 20/12

Reduce

h = 5/3 ft

Answer:

base    =  5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

length= x

area triangle =

(bxh)/2

5/12  = x (1/2) divide by 2

Multiply both sides by 1/2 to isolate x

10/12     =    1/2 x

Multiply by 2

20/12 =  x

5/3 = x
