    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    I. A = 20 x B        \( \frac { 1 } { 2 } \)x B x H =20 x B       H = 40.

     

     I alone gives the answer.

     

    II gives, perimeter of the triangle = 40 cm.

     

    This does not give the height of the triangle.

     

     Correct answer is (A).
