Question

What's the area of the triangle below

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The area of triangle is 24 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A  triangle with base 6 m and height  8 m

We have to find the area of the triangle and choose the correct option from the given options.

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\cdot base\cdot height$

Given Base = 6 m

and height = 8 m

Therefore, Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\cdot 6\cdot 8=24$

Thus, The area of triangle is 24 m²

Answer 2

The correct option is $\boxed{\bf option A}$ i.e., the area of triangle is $\boxed{\bf 24\text{\ \bf m}^{2}}$.

Further explanation:

We are given the base and height of the triangle as shown in the given figure.

If the height and base of a triangle is given then the area of the triangle can be calculated by the formula given below,

$\boxed{\text{Area of Triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \text{base}\cdot \text{height}}$               .....(1)

Calculation:

Here, the height of the triangle is $8\text{ m}$ and base of the triangle is $6\text{ m}$.

Substitute the value of height that as $8\text{ m}$ and the value of base that as $6\text{ m}$ in equation (1) to obtain the area of the triangle as follows:

$\begin{aligned}\text{Area of Triangle}&=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 6\cdot 8\\&=\dfrac{48}{2}\\&=24\end{aligned}$  

Therefore, the area of the triangle is $\boxed{\bf 24\text{\ \bf m}^{2}}$.

This implies that the correct option is $\boxed{\bf option A}$.
