Question

Estimate the area of a triangle with a base of 15.22 km and a height of 13.91 km.

Answer 1

Given a triangle with a base of 15.22 km and a height of 13.91 km. We can find the area of the triangle using the formula below.

$\text{Area of a triangle = }\frac{1}{2}\times\text{base x height}$$\begin{gathered} \text{Area of triangle = }\frac{1}{2}\times15.22\times13.91 \\ =0.5\times15.22\times13.91 \\ =105.8551\operatorname{km}^2 \end{gathered}$

Answer: The area of the triangle is

$105.8551\operatorname{km}^2$
