when you multiply a number by a value that's greater than 1, that number increases, for example 2 and then we multiply it like 2 * 3, clearly 2*3 is greater than 2.
now when you multiply a number by a value that's lesser than 1, that number decreases, for example 2 and then we multiply it by something like 1/4, so 2 * 1/4 = 1/2, well, clearly 1/2 is smaller than 2, so 1/2 is a decreased value of 2.
23)
we have here 4/7, and then a product, well, the product is 4/7 and 9/10, however 9/10 is less than 1, recall 1 = 10/10, 9/10 is just a tiny bit less than 1.
because we're multiplying 4/7 by some amount less than 1, the product is a smaller value than 4/7, thus
25)
we have here 5/6 and we multiply it by 7/7, wait a minute!!! 7/7 = 1, we're really just multiplying 5/6 by 1 then, what does that give us? well, 5/6 * 1 = 5/6, just the number itself,

Explanation:
We're given the height in relation to base BC, so we need to find the length of this base. This is the same as finding the distance from B to C.
Turn to the distance formula
Coincidentally, the base and height are the same. This won't always be the case.
Now we can find the area of the triangle
The area of the triangle is 1 square unit.
See diagram below.
