Question

Gardening Jessica is planting a garden. It has the shape of a right triangle. She wants 3

plants for each square meter of area. How many plants does she want in the garden?

Answer 1

28

Explanation:

plants in the garden = area of the garden / number of plants per square meter

the garden is in the shape of a triangle

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three edges and three vertices. the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

(1/2) x 24 x 7 = 84 meters^2

plants in the garden = 84/3 = 28
