Question

what is the area and formula of a triangle??

Answer 1

To find the area of a triangle, multiply the base(b) by the height(h), and then divide by 2.

□ Note that: The division by 2 comes from the fact that a parallelogram can be divided into 2 triangles.

■ Formula: 1/2 * b * h

Answer 2

Hey Friend !!

Base of the triangle = b

Altitude / Height of the triangle = b

Area of a triangle = $\frac{1}{2} bh$

Lets see the formula to find the area of a parallelogram :-

Area of a parallelogram = bh

We all know that ;

"Diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two triangles of equal area "

Hence , area of a triangle is half the area of a parallelogram.

Hope this Helps You !
