Question

The height of a triangular sail for a model boat is 4 ft and the base is 1 1/6 ft. What is the area, of the triangular set, in square feet? (A = 1/2BH)

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to follow the formula or the area of a triangle (you have actually been given this)

A= 1/2BH

this can also be written as

Area= 1/2 x Base x Height

you can use this by replacing the numbers in place of parts of the formula

Area= 1/2 x Base x 4

Area = 1/2 x 1 1/6 x 4

Now, you can complete this formula to work out the area

The answer is 1/3
