Question

Can someone please help me with this question and explain it to me?

Determine the area of Mr. West's backyard that is covered in grass.

Answer 1

150 square feet

Explanation:

It is half of the yard, because it extends from the corners. To find the area of the triangle of grass, you have to find the product of the legs divided by two.

30*10=300

300/2=150

150 square feet of Mr. West's backyard is covered in grass
