Question

Find the area of the triangle below.

Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.
15 ft
22 ft
5 ft

Answer 1

1/2 × bottom of triangle × the middle dotted line

Area is 1/2 × base × height

so you would do 1/2 × your base say its 12 then times it by 30 which would give you

1/2×12×30= 180

so what ever is the bottom number on the triangle is base and the dotted line down the middle is height

Hope this helps!
