Question

Which triangle has a bigger area:

Answer 1

Answer:

Which triangle has a bigger area:  

1. A triangle with sides measuring 300, 400, and 500.

2. A triangle with sides measuring 300, 400, and 700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The second triangle has the largest area, because although the two triangles have two sides with the same size, the third is larger in the second triangle, 700 of the second, versus 500 of the first, and hence the area is also greater than in the first.

Answer 2

The 2nd triangle has a bigger area, because since it has 2 sides that are equal to the first and its 3rd side is larger than the 1st triangle, it would have larger area, because it would have to have a larger area to have a larger side.
