Question

Find the area of a triangle with a base length of 3 units and a height of 4 units.3 square units06 square units07 square units8 square units

Answer 1

The Area of the triangle is given as

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height \\ \text{where} \\ \text{base}=3\text{units} \\ \text{height}=4\text{units} \end{gathered}$

By substitution, we will have the area to be

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}\times3\times4 \\ A=\frac{12}{2} \\ A=6\text{ square units} \end{gathered}$
