Question

The base and altitude of a triangle are 24 m and 20 m respectively. Then the area of the triangle is _____

Answer 1

Then the area of the triangle is 240 m²

Explanation:

Area of a triangle:

The area of a triangle is given by the multiplication of its height and altitude, divided by 2.

In this question:

Base = 24m, altitude = 20m. So

`A = (24*20)/(2) = 24*10 = 240`

Then the area of the triangle is 240 m²
