Question

Two sides of a triangle have length 6 and 8. Which of the following are possible areas of the triangle?

I. 2
II. 12
III. 24

Answer 1

I, II and III

Explanation:

Two sides of a triangle have length 6 and 8.

the maximum possible area occurs in the right angle .

To find maximum area we use the area of the triangle formula

`area of triangle = (6 \cdot 8)/(2) = 24`

So maximum possible area is 24 units^2

all the given possible values are less than and equal to 24

so all the three options are correct

I, II and III
