Question

An abstract sculpture in the form of a triangle has a base of 21 meters and a height of 12 meters. Find the area of the triangle.

Answer 1

An abstract sculpture in the form of a triangle. Area of triangular sculpture = 126 square meters

Solution:

Given that shape of sculpture is triangle.

Base of sculpture = 21 meters

Height of sculpture = 12 meters

we know that area of triangle is given as,

`Area of triangle = (1)/(2) * base * height`

So Area of triangular sculpture =
`(1)/(2) * base of sculpture * height of sculpture`

`= (1)/(2) * 21 * 12` = 126 square meters

Hence area of triangular sculpture = 126 square meters
