Question

The base of a triangle is 7/3 yd and the height is 1/2 yd . Find the area. Leave your answer as a fraction or whole number.

Answer 1

So remember that the area of a triangle is
`A=(1)/(2)bh` . Using this info, we can make the equation
`A=(1)/(2) *(7)/(3) *(1)/(2)`

All you need to do is multiply everything, and your answer will be
`A=(7)/(12)`

In short, the area is 7/12 yds^2
