Question

FInd the area of the polygon

Answer 1

area of polygon =area of TRIANGLE =

1/2 base×height =1/2×7×4=14 units²

Answer 2

A = 14 units ²

Explanation:

Hello There!

The polygon shown is a triangle

The first step is to find the formula for area of a triangle

`A=(1)/(2) bh`

where b = base and h = height

the following dimensions are given

base = 7 and 4 = height

so all we have to do is plug in the values into the formula

`A=(1)/(2) 7*4\\7*4=28\\(1)/(2) 28=14\\A=14`

so we can conclude that the area of the polygon is 14 units ²
