Question

I’m confused on this one

Answer 1

$\sf Hello!$

• $\sf Base = 10\: ft$
• $\sf Height = 13\: ft$

$\sf Here,$
$\sf We\: only\: require \: Base\: and\: Height\: only.$

$\sf Area \: of\: Triangle$ :

= $\dfrac{\sf 1}{\sf 2} × \sf Base × \sf Height$

= $\dfrac{\sf 1}{\sf 2} × \sf 10 × \sf 13$

= $\sf 5 × 13\: ft^{2}$ = $\sf 65\: ft^{2}$

$\sf Hence,$
$\sf Area\: of\: the\: Triangle \: is\: 65\: ft^{2}$

Answer 2

In the chart of the triangle it shows that the variable b is the base. It also give us the equation for area 1/2bh (half of base * height)

Now we just plug in the values we are given

1/2bh

1/2(10*13)

1/2(130)

65

The area of the triangle is 65 ft
