Question

Im the triangle below, the value of h is 3/4 the side length that is labeled on the figure. What is the area of the triangle?

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is

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

here b = 4.8 and h =
`(3)/(4)` × 4.8 = 3.6

A = 0.5 × 4.8 × 3.6 = 8.64 m² → C
