Area of the triangle
$=(5)/(12)\ x^2$

Solution:

Base of the triangle =
(5)/(6)x

Height of the triangle =

Formula for the area of the triangle:

Area of the triangle =
$(1)/(2)\ {bh}$

Substitute base and height in the formula of the area of the triangle.

$$=(1)/(2)\ *(5)/(6)x* x$

Using exponential rule:
a^m*a^n=a^(m+n) so that
x^(1+1)=x^2

$$=(5)/(12)\ x^2$

Hence area of the triangle
$=(5)/(12)\ x^2$ .
