Acute Triangles: Find the Missing Base

Invite your learner to be a geometry detective as they find the missing base in a series of acute triangles! Given the area and height of each triangle, students will use the formula for finding the area of a triangle to determine the value of the missing base in a variety of triangles. After reviewing the formula and seeing it applied to an outlined example, learners will be challenged to find the missing base in six acute triangles. Geared toward sixth- and seventh-grade learners, this worksheet offers an accessible way for students to build their geometry skills.
