Since the base is constant, Area is directly proportional to height. If Area doubles (98 to 196), height must also double. Since 98 = 0.5 * 14 * h1, h1 = 14, so h2 = 14 * 2 = 28. (Correction: A1 = 0.514h1 => 98 = 7*h1 => h1 = 14. If Area doubles, h2 = 28).
Base (b) = 14 cm, Area of first triangle (A1) = 98 cm², Area of second triangle (A2) = 2 * A1 = 196 cm².
Area=21×b×h
Since the base is constant, Area is directly proportional to height. If Area doubles (98 to 196), height must also double. Since 98 = 0.5 * 14 * h1, h1 = 14, so h2 = 14 * 2 = 28. (Correction: A1 = 0.514h1 => 98 = 7*h1 => h1 = 14. If Area doubles, h2 = 28).
Students often miscalculate the first height as 7 instead of 14, or forget to multiply the area by 2 before solving for the new height.
Calculate height of the first triangle
Using the area formula A=21×b×h, solve for h1 with A1=98 and b=14.
98=21×14×h1⟹h1=1498×2=14 cm
Calculate area of the second triangle
The second triangle's area A2 is twice that of the first.
A2=2×98=196 cm2
Find height of the second triangle
Use the same base b=14 and new area A2=196 to find h2.
196=21×14×h2⟹h2=14196×2=28 cm
D is correct because calculating with the given dimensions and the area doubling rule results in a height of 28 cm.
This concept of direct proportionality (if base is constant, area ∝ height) is widely used in Geometry and Physics (e.g., pressure-force-area problems).
