Find the area of the triangle

zheka24 [161]

Base = 16.9 ft
Height = 10.4 ft
We know,
$area \: \: of \: \: a \: \: triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height$
Therefore, area of the triangle

$=( \frac{1}{2} \times 10.4 \times 16.9) {ft}^{2} \\ = (5.2 \times 16.9) {ft}^{2} \\ = 87.88 {ft}^{2}$

Answer:

The area of the triangle is 87.88 square feet.

Hope you could get an idea from here.
