Question

What is the area of a triangle with a base of 5 units and a height of 15 units

Answer 1

Area = 1/2bh (base · height)

5 · 15 = 75

75 · 0.50 or 75/2 = 37.50

Area = 37.50

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Area is 37.5 square units.

Explanation:

We know that,

`\text{Area of a triangle}= (1)/(2)* \text{Base}* \text{height}`

Here,

Base = 5 units,

Height = 15 units,

So, the area of the given triangle is,

`A=(1)/(2)* 5* 15`

`=(75)/(2)`

`=37.5\text{ square unit}`
