Answer 1

C) 76.125 sqr. ft

Explanation:

The formula of an area of a triangle:

`A=(1)/(2)bh`

b - base

h - height

We have

b = 14.5 ft

h = 10.5 ft

Substitute:

`A=(1)/(2)(14.5)(10.5)=(152.25)/(2)=76.125`

Answer 2

76.125

Explanation:

1. 14.5 times 10.5
2. Get 152.25 ft
3. Divide by 2
4. Get 76.125 sq. ft
