Answer: The height of given triangle is also irrational.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the area be equilateral triangle.

Area of triangle  is irrational say [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Base of triangle is rational say [tex]2[/tex]

So, the height of triangle would be

[tex]\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times a=h\\\\\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times 2=h\\\\h=\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Hence, the height of given triangle is also irrational.
