Question

Which of the following formulas could be used to find the area, A, of a triangle with base b and height h?

Answer 1

The area of a triangle is A ( area) = B (base) × H (height) ÷ 2 

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2} bh$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the triangle can be found by the formula

Area = base times height divide by 2

Base of the triangle is 'b'

height of the triangle is 'h'

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

Replace the variables for base and height

Area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2} bh$
