Question

3. The formula for the area of a triangle is A = b × h ÷ 2. The ballrack has a base of 6 inches and a height of 10.4 inches. How wouldyou find the area of the rack?

Answer 1

To find the area of the rack we just need to evaluate the givens values in the formula. The area of a triangle is given by

$A=\frac{b\times h}{2}$

Where b represents the base and h represents the height. Since the ball rack has a base of 6 inches and a height of 10.4 inches, its area is given by

$A=\frac{6\times10.4}{2}=31.2$

The area of the ball rack is 31.2 in².
