Question

| 3. Find the Area of the triangle.
8.6 yd
10.9 yd

Answer 1

46.87 yd^2

Explanation:

The area of the triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (8.6)(10.9)

A =46.87 yd^2

Answer 2

Given:

The base of the triangle = 8.6 yd

The height of the triangle = 10.9 yd

To find the area of the triangle.

Formula

The area of a triangle with b as base and h as height is

`A=(1)/(2)bh`

Now,

Taking, b= 8.6 and h = 10.9 we get,

`A=(1)/(2)(8.6)(10.9)` sq yd

or,
`A= 46.87` sq yd

Hence,

The area of the given triangle is 46.87 sq yd.
