Please help find the area of this for 45 points

Answer 1

area = 1
`(7)/(8)` in²

Explanation:

the area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A =
`(1)/(2)` bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

here b = 1
`(1)/(4)` and h = 3 , then

A =
`(1)/(2)` × 1
`(1)/(4)` × 3 ( change mixed number to improper fraction )

=
`(1)/(2)` ×
`(5)/(4)` × 3

=
`(1(5)(3))/(2(4))`

=
`(15)/(8)`

= 1
`(7)/(8)` in²
