Question

Greg uses a triangular area of his back yard as a garden.If the area if his garden 1.248 square feet,whats the area of the garden?

Answer 1

192 ft²

Explanation:

Area of rectangular backyard = 1248 ft²

Width of backyard = 52 ft

Length = x

Area of rectangular backyard = Length * width

1248 = x * 52

x = 1248 / 52

x = 24 feets

Hence, x = height of triangular garden

Area of triangle = 1/2 base * height

Area = 1/2 * 16 * 24

Area = 192 ft²
