Question

Find the area.This is a triangle DEN. Side NE has a length of 37 meters. Side DN has a length of 36 meters. The altitude from point D measures 30 meters. A. 1100 m²B. 555 m²C. 338 m²D. 1066 m²

Answer 1

The area of a triangle is given by the formula:

A= (base*height)/2

In the picture we have base = 37 m and height =30 m. So:

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{37*30}{2} \\ A=555m² \end{gathered}$

Answer: Letter B
