Lets break it down: Triangle- The area of a triangle is base×height÷2 so if we plug in the numbers, the base would be 5 (the length) and the height would be 4 (the height). 5×4= 20÷2= 10. Square- The area of a square is base×height so if we pluged in the numbers, the base is 5 (the length) and the height is 5 (the height). 5×5= 25.
