Question

The face of a watch is in the shape of a triangle with a base of 6 centimeters and a height of 7.75 centimeters. What is the area of the watch?

Answer 1

Answer: 23.25 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a triangle is A=1/2(b*h). Substitute the values for base and height.

A= 1/2(6*7.75)

Now, solve within the parentheses.

A=1/2(46.5)

Next, multiply 1/2 by 46.5.

A=23.25
