Question

What is the area of the obtuse triangle given below?

Answer 1

The area of a triangle is 1/2 the base times the height.
 The base is 15 and the height is 13.

Area = 1/2 x 15 x 13 = 97.5 sq. units.
 The answer is A.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times base \times height$

From the given figure it is clear that the base of the triangle is 15 units and the height of the triangle is 13 units.

The area of the triangle is

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 15 \times 13$

$A=97.5$

The area of triangle is 97.5 square units. Therefore option A is correct.
