Answer:
3.528
Explanation:
the scale factor from the large triangle to the smaller triangle is 1/2. All of the side lengths of the small triangle is 1/2 the side lengths of the large triangle.
A = 1/2 (bh) The area of a triangle. I need to know the base and the height of the little triangle to figure out the area. If I use AC as the base, the length is given to me. It is 4.2. I do not have the height of the base, but I know that it is half of the height of the large triangle and that number is given to me. It is 3.36, if I divide that by 2, I get 1.68. Now I know all that I need to find the area.
A = 1/2(4.2)(1.68)
