Question

What is the area of the obtuse triangle given below?

Answer 1

the area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h

A = 1/2 * 11 * 7 = 38.5

your answer is D

hope that helps :)

Answer 2

Option (d) is correct.

The area of triangle is 38.5 square units

Explanation:

Given: An obtuse triangle.

We have to find the area of this obtuse angle.

Consider the given obtuse triangle

Area of triangle =
`(1)/(2)\cdot b \cdot h`

where b = Base

h = height

Given : base = 11 units

and height = 7 units

Thus, Area of triangle =
`(1)/(2)\cdot 11 \cdot 7`

Simplify, we have,

Area of triangle = 38.5

Thus, The area of triangle is 38.5 square units
