Answer 1

Answer:

13.29 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The two shorter sides of a right triangle have lengths of 9.88 meters and 2.69 meters

Two shorter sides are the base and the height of the right angle triangle

Area of the triangle is 1/2 times base times height

$area= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 9.88 \cdot 2.69$

Area of the triangle is 13.2886

13.29 square meters
