Explanation:

First, multiple each side of the the equation by color(red)(2) to eliminate the fraction:

color(red)(2) xx A= color(red)(2) xx 1/2bh

2A= cancel(color(red)(2)) xx 1/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(2)))bh

2A = 1bh

2A = bh

Now, divide each side of the equation by color(red)(b) to solve for h:

(2A)/color(red)(b) = (bh)/color(red)(b)

(2A)/b = (color(red)(cancel(color(black)(b)))h)/cancel(color(red)(b))

(2A)/b = h

h = (2A)/b
