Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The area of a triangle is given by the formula $ \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} $. Given a maximum area of 405 square inches and a base of 18 inches, we solve for the height (maximum length of the flag) using the area formula: $ 405 = \frac{1}{2} \times 18 \times \text{height} $. Solving for height gives us 45 inches.
