Answer:
option B = 2cm
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]Area \ of \ first \ triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base_1 \times height_1 \ [ \where base_1 = 4\cm \ height_1 \ = 7cm \ ][/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 7 \\\\= 14 \ cm^2[/tex]
Given area of second triangle is same as first.
[tex]Area \ of \ second \ triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base_2 \times height_2 \ [ \ where \ height _ 2 = 14cm \ ][/tex]
[tex]14 = \frac{1}{2} \times base_2 \times 14\\\\14 = 7 \times base_2\\\\base_2 = 2 \ cm[/tex]
