Question

f the area of a triangular sheet is ½ base × height. What is the area of a triangular sheet with a height of 6 units and a base of 5 units?

Answer 1

Given :

• Base = 5 units
• Height = 6 units

To Find :

• Area = ?

$\\ \qquad{\rule{200pt}{2pt}}$

SolutioN :

$\dag$ Formula Used :

• ${\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\sf{ Area{\small_{(Triangle)}} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height }}}}}$

$\dag$ Calculating the Area :

$\begin{gathered} \qquad \; \dashrightarrow \; \; \sf { Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height } \\ \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} \qquad \; \dashrightarrow \; \; \sf { Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 6 } \\ \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} \qquad \; \dashrightarrow \; \; \sf { Area = \cancel\dfrac{30}{2} } \\ \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered} \qquad \; \dashrightarrow \; \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\sf{ Area = 15 \; {units}^{2} }}}}} \; {\pink{\pmb{\bigstar}}} \\ \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

$\therefore \;$ Area of the Triangle is 15 units² .
