A. False
Why? Because you cut off the triangle. The measurements are 20 mm and 10 mm.
B. True
Why? Because 20*10 = 200
C. False
Why? Because the base is 6 since 26 - 20 is 6. The height is 4, not 6 because 10 - 6 is 4.
D. True
Why? Because like question C., the base is 6, and the height is 4. 6*4 is 24/2 = 12. If you don't get this, the formula for all triangles is b*h*1/2
E. True
Why? Because from questions B. and D., the area of the rectangle is 200 and the area of the triangle is 12. 200 + 12 = 210.

Hope this helped,
