Answer 1

Area = 5.8 cm

Explanation:

Area = 1/2 * base * height

Area = 1/2 * 4.6 * 2.5

Area = 5.75 cm

Area = 5.8 cm

Answer 2

A = 5.8 cm^2

Explanation:

The area of a triangle is

A = 1/2 bh

where b is the base and h is the height

b = 4.6 and h = 2.5

A = 1/2 (4.6) * (2.5)

A =5.75 cm^2

Rounding to 1 decimal place

A = 5.8 cm^2
