Challenge: Triangle Minimum Height
Complete the challenge to calculate the minimum height of a triangle.
We'll cover the following...
Description
Consider a triangle for which you know the value of the base and the area (both of them are integers). You need to find the smallest integer that will be the height of this triangle.

This is the expression to calculate the area:
From this expression, you’ll probably be able to get the height. But remember, you need to find the minimum height for a triangle to exist based on integers. So, if you have a float height, you might need to find the closest integer that will make the triangle a valid one.
Here are a few numerical examples to make this idea of minimum-height more precise:
