Question

Find the area of the triangle. Show your reasoning. If you get stuck, carefully consider which side of the triangle to use as the base.​

Answer 1

The area of the triangle is found as 12 unit².

What is defined as the triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three sides that closes a space.

• The three sides are formed by lines, line segments, or rays (in just about any combination).
• Three vertices, or corners, are formed if three sides form or meet.
• A triangle's height or altitude is calculated by drawing a perpendicular line through one side to the opposite angle.
• The base is the side with which the altitude intersects wherever it is built.

The formula for the area of the triangle is;

Area of triangle= ½ × base × height

The base is given as 6 units and the height is 4 units. (count 1 column of graph as 1 unit).

Put the values in formula.

Area of triangle = ½(6)(4)

Area of triangle = 12 unit.²

Therefore, the area of the triangle is found as 12 unit.²
