    Equation = 192mm^2 = 1/2*b*12 mm

    It's algebra so get the 'b' by itself.

    b = 192mm^2 divided by 6 (since half of twelve is six)

    then answer 32.

    A=1/2bh

    dа ta:

    a=192 mm²

    h=12 mm

    therefore:

    192 mm²=1/2 (b) (12 mm)

    192 mm²=6b mm

    b=192 mm²/6 mm

    b=32 mm

    Answer: the measure of the base is 32 mm
