The number of triangles having a fixed base of $$a$$ units and area 2009 square units is _________
Correct Answer: 0
PLACEHOLDER ANSWER - the answer is "infinitely many". The area is $$\frac{1}{2} \times a \times h = 2009$$, so the height must be $$h = \frac{4018}{a}$$. The third vertex can be any point on either of the two lines parallel to the base at this distance, so there are infinitely many such triangles.
