Question

A town plans to make a triangular park. The triangle has a base of 120 feet and a height of 115 feet. What will the area of the park be?

A)13,800 ft2
B)27,600 ft2
C)6,900 ft2
D)6,612.5 ft2

Answer 1

The answer would be 6,900 ft2. The equation to find the area is "a=1/2bx"

a= area b=base h=height. Hope this helps :D

Answer 2

Given that, a town plans to make a triangular park. The triangle has a base of 120 feet and a height of 115 feet.

We know that area of a triangle =
`(1)/(2)` x base x height

Given that base of triangle is 120 feet and height is 115 feet. From the given data, we calculate the area of the triangular park.

Area =
`(1)/(2)*120 *115 = 6900`

Hence , Area of triangular park is 6900 square feet.
