Question

What’s the answer to this problem , figure out the area and perimeter of this triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Here are the formulas for what you are asking for.

P = s1 + s2 + s3

Area = height * base / 2

Givens

s1 = 12.6

s2 = 6.3

s3 = 7.4

height = 4.5

base = 7.4

The area is just slightly different than it normally is. The reason is the height. It is not directly connected to the base. The construction is called the base extended.  See the givens for what that is.

Solution

Perimeter

P = s1 + s2 + s3                        Substitute givens into the formula

P = 12.6+6.3 + 7.4

p = 26.3

Area

Area = (B * H)/ 2

Area = 7.4 *4.5 / 2

Area = 16.65

Answer 2

Answer:

Area: 16.65m^2 (^2 means to the power of 2 exponent, or squared)

Perimeter: 26.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle Area formula: bh/2

Plug it in: (7.4)(4.5)/2=16.65

Perimeter: Add the sides

12.6+7.4+6.3=26.3
