Question

PLEASE ANSWER 20 POINTS!

Answer 1

Base - 7 yards

Height - 10 yards

Area - 35 square yards

Explanation:

By definition, the base and height must be perpendicular. Technically, they are interchangeable, but base usually refers to the relative bottom of a figure.

The area of a triangle with base
`b` and height
`h` is equal to
`A=(1)/(2)bh`.

Therefore, we have:

`A=(1)/(2)\cdot 7\cdot 10=\boxed{35\:\text{square yards}}`
