Answer:

First you write the formula

  • A= 1/2 * d1 * d2

Next substitute the numbers

  • A = 1/2 * 12 * 9

Finally use the PEMDAS method and solve for volume or area

  • A = 54

Really hope this helps you

Answer:

Explanation:

I think you're asking how we use formulas to find areas and volumes.

There's no one area formula; the formula we use to calculate an area depends upon the shape.

For example, the area of a square of side length s is A = s^2.

The area of a triangle with base b and height h is (1/2)*b*h.

Similarly, the choice of formula for the purpose of calculating voume depends upon the shape of the 3-dimensional object.

For example, the volume of a cube with side length s is V = s^3.

The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h is V = (1/3)πr^2*h.
