Question

The height of a triangle is (4x+5) and its base is (2x-2). What is the area of the triangle?

Answer 1

4x²+x-5

Explanation:

• The height of a triangle is (4x+5) and its base is (2x-2). What is the area of the triangle?

we use the formula Area = 1/2bh, where b is the base and h the height

Area =

1/2×(2x-2)×(4x+5) =

4x²+5x-4x-5=

4x²+x-5
