Question

I’m confused on this one

Answer 1

`\sf Hello!`

•
`\sf Base = 10\: ft`
•
`\sf Height = 13\: ft`


`\sf Here,`

`\sf We\: only\: require \: Base\: and\: Height\: only.`


`\sf Area \: of\: Triangle` :

=
`(\sf 1)/(\sf 2) × \sf Base × \sf Height`

=
`(\sf 1)/(\sf 2) × \sf 10 × \sf 13`

=
`\sf 5 × 13\: ft^(2)` =
`\sf 65\: ft^(2)`


`\sf Hence,`

`\sf Area\: of\: the\: Triangle \: is\: 65\: ft^(2)`

Answer 2

In the chart of the triangle it shows that the variable b is the base. It also give us the equation for area 1/2bh (half of base * height)

Now we just plug in the values we are given

1/2bh

1/2(10*13)

1/2(130)

65

The area of the triangle is 65 ft
