Question

39. A triangle, with dimensions in inches (in.), is shown.22 in31.5 inWhat is the area, in square inches, of the triangle?

Answer 1

In order to calculate the area of this triangle, we can use the following formula:

`A=(b\cdot h)/(2)`

Where b is the base and h is the height relative to this base.

So, using b = 31.5 and h = 22, we have:

`\begin{gathered} A=(31.5\cdot22)/(2) \\ A=346.5 \end{gathered}`

So the area of the triangle is 346.5 in².
