Answer

We can see that only triangles A and triangle C have an area of 30 square units.

Step-by-step explanation

The area of a triangle is given as

Area of a triangle = ½ BH

where

B = Base of the triangle

H = Perpendicular Height of the triangle

So, we check each of the triangles out

- For triangle A

Base = 6 units

Height = 10 units

Area = ½ × 6 × 10 = 30 square units

- For triangle B

Base = 10 units

Height = 8.66 units

Area = ½ × 10 × 8.66 = 43.3 square units

- For triangle C

Base = 6 units

Height = 10 units

Area = ½ × 6 × 10 = 30 square units

- For triangle D

Base = 6 units

Height = 8 units

Area = ½ × 6 × 8 = 24 square units

- For triangle E

Base = 3 units

Height = 10 units

Area = ½ × 3 × 10 = 15 square units

Hence, we can see that only triangles A and triangle C have an area of 30 square units.

Hope this Helps!!!!
