What is the area of the triangle ?

Mathematics
1 answer:

from the question, (-2,2) and (1,2) have the same y value so you can use that as your base and easily find the perpendicular height using the y axis since it's parallel to the x axis.

the third point, (0,-6), to the base is your height

use the sum of the positive of the y values to find your height (because height can't be negative): 6+2 = 8

area of a triangle = 1/2 bh = 1/2 x 3 x 8 = 12

Note: 1/2 bh only works because (-2,2) and (1,2) form a line parallel to the x axis

A tree grows vertically on a hillside. The hill is at a 16° angle to the horizontal. The tree casts an 18-meter shadow up the hi
elixir [45]
The height of the tree is the sum of the part below the line parallel to the horizontal and the part above the line parallel to the horizontal.

Height of the part below the line parallel to the horizontal = 18 sin16° = 4.96 meters
Horizontal distance of the tip of the of the shadow from the tree = 18 cos16° = 17.30 meters
Height of the part above the line parallel to the horizontal = 17.3 tan68° = 42.83 meters

Height of the tree = 4.96 + 42.83 = 47.79 meters
