Answer 1

Question:

Find the area, in swuare meters, of the shape above

Answer:

Remember that the formula for the area of any triangle is:

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

Where:

• b, is the lenght of the triangle's base

,

• h, is the height of the triangle

Using this expression with the triangle in the image, we get:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{b\times h}{2}\rightarrow\frac{7.6\times7.6}{2} \\ \rightarrow28.88m^2 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 28.88 square meters.
