Question

a triangular pond has a base of 10 meters and a height of 6 meters.What is the area of the pond

Answer 1

Answer :

Here, we are given the base and height of a trianglular pond. We need to calculate the area of pond. For that we will use the following formula :

• Area of triangle = ½ × b × h

where,

• b denotes the base of the triangle
• h denotes the height of the triangle

Solution :

Given :

• Base of the triangular pond = 10 m
• Height of the trianglular pond = 6 m

To find :

• Area of the trianglular pond

Solution :

Using formula,

• Area of trianglular pond = ½ × b × h

Substituting the given values :

⇒ Area of triangular pond = ½ × 10 × 6

⇒ Area of triangular pond = 5 × 6

⇒ Area of triangular pond = 30

Therefore, the area of triangular pond = 30 m²
