Question

Find the area of a triangle with a base of 3 inches and a height of 14 inches.

Answer

Apply the formula for the area of a triangle: $\frac{1}{2}bh$

A = 3 * 14 * (1/2) = 21

Make sure that your units are squared.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Find the area of a triangle with a base of 16 meters and a height of 4 meters.

Answer

Area of a triangle = $\frac{1}{2}bh$

= (1/2) * 16 * 4

= 32

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

What is the area of this triangle?

Answer

The area of a triangle can be calculated using this equation $\small A=\frac{1}{2}bh$ .

In this question, the base, , is . The height, , is .

$\small A=\frac{1}{2}bh=\frac{1}{2}(8)(6)=\frac{1}{2}(48)=24$

Question

What is the area of a triangle with a base of and a height of ?

Answer

The equation for the area of a triangle is

$A=\frac{1}{2}(Base)(Height)$

We plug the base of and the height of into the equation to get

$A=\frac{1}{2}(8)(13)$

We then multiply to get the answer of .

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

What is the area of a triangle with a base of and a height of ?

Answer

The equation for the area of a triangle is

$A=(\frac{1}{2})(base)(height)$

We plug the base of and the height of into the equation to get

$A=(\frac{1}{2})(4)(90)$

We then multiply to get the answer of .

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

What is the area of a triangle with a base of and a height of ?

Answer

The formula for the area of a triangle is half of the base times the height: $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

Plug in our given information and solve:

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

$A=\frac{1}{2}87$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

If a triangle has an area of and a base of , what is the height?

Answer

The formula for the area of a triangle is half of the base times the height: $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

Plug in our given information and solve:

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

$44=\frac{1}{2}11h$

Multiply both sides by to get rid of the $\frac{1}{2}$ :

Divide both sides by :

$\frac{88}{11}=h$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

What is the base of a triangle if the height is and the area is ?

Answer

The formula for the area of a triangle is $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$ .

Plug in our given values.

$50=\frac{1}{2}b20$

Combine like terms.

$50=(\frac{1}{2}20)b$

Divide both sides by to isolate .

$\frac{50}{10}=b$
