Question

The formula for the area of the triangle is a=1/2bh find the area of the triangle with a base of 9 feet and a height of 16 feet

Answer 1

The area of the triangle is 72 ft^2.

Explanation:

Since A = (1/2)(base)(height),

if base = 9 ft and height = 16 ft, then

A = (1/2)(base)(height) = (1/2)(9 ft)(16 ft) = 72 ft^2.
