Question

A town plans to make a triangular park. The triangle has a base of 250 feet and a height of 71 feet. What will the area of the park be?

Answer 1

Area of a triangle park= A = 8875 feet

Explanation:

Given Data:

height of a triangle = h = 71 feet

base of a triangle = b = 250 feet

To Find Out:

Area of a triangle = A = ?

Formula:

Area of a triangle park= A =
`(1)/(2) (b*h)`

Solution:

Area of a triangle park = A =
`(1)/(2) (b*h)`

Area of a triangle park = A =
`(1)/(2) (71*250)`

Area of a triangle park = A =
`(1)/(2) (17750)`

Area of a triangle park= A = 8875 feet

Answer 2

8875 feet^2

Explanation:

250/2*71
