Question

Substitute the values for the base and the height into the area formula.

What is the area of the triangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

A=60

Step-by-step explanation:

A = ab/2 where a and b are legs of the triangle.

First we substitute:

A = 12 x 10 / 2

Then we solve (you can plug it in the calculator):

A= 120 / 2

A= 60

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of a triangle is ½ (b × h), where b is the base and h is the height. The base of a triangle is any one of the sides, and the height of the triangle is the length of the altitude from the opposite vertex to that base.

Step-by-step explanation:

A=1/2 bh

 

multipy 2 at both side of the equation

 

 2A = bh

 

divide b at both side , then we will get h   

 

 h = 2A/b
