Question

Find the area of the triangle.

Answer 1

5.4 cm^2

Explanation:

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (5.4 cm)(2 cm)

A = (2.7 cm)(2 cm)

A = 5.4 cm^2

Answer 2

Area of a triangle equals 1/2 base times height, or 1/2bh. So it would be 5.4 times 2, equaling 10.8. Then multiply it by 1/2, which would divide it by 2, resulting in 5.4 again. Just make sure to get your units right.
