Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is:

a = 1/2 × b × h

  • b = length of the base
  • h = height

We can sub in the values we know:

16in² = 1/2 × b × 4in

To find b, we divide both sides by 1/2 and 4in:

16in² ÷ (1/2 × 4in) = b

16in² ÷ 2in = b

b = 8in

Hope this helps!
