Answer 1

Given:

The base of the triangle = 50 millimetres

Height of triangle = 36 millimetres

Find-:

Area of triangle

Explanation-:

The area of a triangle is:

`\text{ Area of triangle }=(1)/(2)*\text{ Base}*\text{ Height}`

The area of a triangle is:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ Base }=50 \\ \\ \text{ Height }=36 \end{gathered}`

Area is:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ Area }=(1)/(2)*\text{ Base}*\text{ Height} \\ \\ \text{ Area }=(1)/(2)*50*36 \\ \\ \text{ Area }=50*18 \\ \\ \text{ Area }=900\text{ millimeters}^2 \end{gathered}`

The area of a triangle is 900 square millimeters
