A: 18 ft^2
B: 18 ft C: 9 ft^ 2 D: 4.5 ft^2

Answer 1

9 ft^ 2

Explanation:

Answer 2

The formula of area of triangle is given by

`A= (1)/(2) b*h`

Where b is the base and h is the height .

In the given question, base ,b = 3 feet

Height, h= 6 feet

Substituting the values of b and h in the formula, we will get

`A = (1)/(2)*3*6 = 9 ft^2`

Correct option is C .
