Question

homeworklibexpress the area a of a right triangle as a function of the height h if the base of the triangle is twice its height?

Answer 1

A = h²

Explanation:

the area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A =
`(1)/(2)` bh ( b is the base and h the height )

here b = 2h , then

A =
`(1)/(2)` × 2h × h = h × h = h²
