1. What is the base(b)

2.What is the height(h)

3.Find the area

(It would help to explain your work)

Answer 1

1. 44ft

2. 18ft

2. 396ft²

Explanation:

1. Base

Sum of the total length

= 15ft + 29ft

= 44ft

Height.

The height is already given in the image above to be 18ft and it's runs perpendicular from the base.

Area

Formula for area of a triangle is 1/5(b)(h)

= 0.5 * 44 * 18

= 396 ft
