Answer:

h = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for area of a triangle A = (1/2)bh,   where b is the base, and h is the height.

Plug in the given information of A = 36, and b = 6, then solve for h

36 = (1/2)(6)h

  36 = 3h        (one half of 6 is 3     (1/2)(6) = 3     )

    12 = h        (divide both sides by 3 to isolate h)

The height of the triangle is 20 cm.
