Answer:

60 m2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are congruent SQ=MP, NM=RQ, RS=NP. The formula to find the area of a triangle is  1/2 bh. So you do 8 times 15 divided by 2. 8 times 15 is 120. 120 divided by 2 is 60 m2.

Answer:60m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

MNP is a triangle and area of a triangle = 1/2* base *height

From the figure height = 15 and base = ?

So we solve for the base using Pythagoras theorem

.: MP = square root of 17^2 - 15^2

MP = 8m =the base

Area of MNP = 1/2*8*15

Area = 60m^2
