Question

PLEASE HELP WITH THIS MATH PROBLEM!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

D.

Explanation:

Doing width times height for a triangle would give you the answer to a whole square, so you must divide it by 2, or multiply by half.

So, 25 x 40 = x, the area of it if it were a square.

Then, since a triangle is cut out, you either divide it by 2 or multiply by 1/2, same thing. That is the area of it.

Answer 2

D since Area for triangle is height times width divided by two, it's 25 x 40 x 1/2

Also, time 1/2 is equivalent to dividing by 2
