What is the measure of the base of a triangle that has a height of 8 centimeters and an area of 24 square centimeters?
Since they've given use the area of the triangle, we can use the area formula to find the base of the triangle.

The measure of the base of the triangle can be calculated using the formula for the area of a triangle:
[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} ]
Given that the area of the triangle is 24 square centimeters and the height is 8 centimeters, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the base:
[ 24 = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times 8 ]
[ 24 = 4 \times \text{base} ]
[ \text{base} = \frac{24}{4} ]
[ \text{base} = 6 ]
Therefore, the measure of the base of the triangle is 6 centimeters.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
