How does tripling the side lengths of a right triangle affect its area?)

kap26 [50]

The area of the triangle will then be 9 times as great.

The formula of the area of a triangle is 1/2bh, so if the base has been tripled and the height has been tripled, you're essentially multiplying 3 to the original equation twice (3 x 3 = 9).
