Answer:

3500 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has an area of ...

A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(10 cm)(7 cm) = 35 cm²

The area of the enlarged triangle will be 10² = 100 times that, or 3500 cm².

__

You can see this if you use the enlarged dimensions in the area formula:

A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(10·10 cm)(10·7 cm) = 100·35 cm² = 3500 cm
