1, 2, and 4 option 3....................................................
First, find the area of the base (the triangle) and then multiply it by the height
to find the area of the triangle you need to know the height. cut the triangle in half and you get a right triangle, from there you can use the Pythagorean theorem. remember since you cut the triangle in half you have to divide one of the sides by 2
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (plug in known information)
a^2 + (7.5)^2 = (15)^2 (solve, first solve the exponents)
a^2 + 56.25 = 225 (subtract 56.25 on both sides)
a^2 = 168.75 (solve for a, put 168.75 under the square root)
then once you find the area multiply by the known height
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when you try and find the area you would multiply but you don't have one of the numbers to multiply, so what is the oppisite of multiplication? Divison. You would divide the area by the highth. so it would be 4.5 divided by 1.8. 4.5 divided by 1.8 equals 2.5. And to make sure your answer is correct you would multiply 1.8 times 2.5 wich does equal 4.5. The highth is 1.8, the Length is 2.5, and the are is 4.5
