To find the height ( h ) of the triangle, you can use the formula for the area of a triangle:
[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} ]
Given that the base measures 2.4 inches and the area is 3.6 square inches, you can rearrange the formula to solve for the height:
[ h = \frac{2 \times A}{\text{base}} ]
Plugging in the given values:
[ h = \frac{2 \times 3.6}{2.4} ]
[ h = \frac{7.2}{2.4} ]
[ h = 3 \text{ inches} ]
So, the height of the triangle is 3 inches.
