Question

Using the formula for the area of a triangle, , write an expression for the area of ΔABC. Base your answer on the work you did in parts G through I. Show your work.

Answer 1

`Area = (1)/(2) * AC * D`

Explanation:

From the complete question, we have:

Length D to be perpendicular to side AC

So, the area of the triangle is:

`Area = (1)/(2) * Base * Height`

Since:

Length D is perpendicular to side AC

Then:

`Base = AC`

`Heigjt =D`

So:

`Area = (1)/(2) * AC * D`
