Question

2. A town plans to make a triangular park. The triangle has a base of 120 feet and a height of 115 feet. What will the area of the park be? (1 point) 13,800 2 27,600 2 6,900 2 6,612.5 2

Answer 1

Answer: 6,900 ft²

Explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must apply the formula for calculate the area of a triangle, which is shown below:

`A=(bh)/(2)`

Where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height.

2. The problem gives the value of the base and the height. Therefore, when you substitute these values into the formula, you obtain that the area of the park will be:

`A=((120ft)(115ft))/(2)\\A=6,900ft^(2)`
