Question

Determine the area of the triangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

$198.4cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is $\frac{base*height}{2}$

To work this out you would first need to multiply the base of 24.8 by the height of 16. This is because working out the area of a triangle is similar to that of a square, which gives you 396.8. Then you would divide 396.8 by 2, which gives you  198.4. This is because by just multiplying the base by the height you are calculating the area of a square, so you would divide it by 2 to find the area of a triangle.

1) Multiply 24.8 by 16.

$24.8*16=396.8$

2) Divide 396.8 by 2.

$396.8/2=198.4cm^{2}$
