Question

I have a square piece of paper with a height of 8cm and a width of 8cm

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of triangle is 32 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

When you fold a square into triangle, the length of sides will still be the same. So using area of triangle formula, you are able to find the area :

$area = \frac{1}{2} \times width \times height$

Let width = 8cm,

Let height = 8cm,

$area = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 8$

$area = \frac{1}{2} \times 64$

$area = 32 \: {cm}^{2}$

Answer 2

Given:

• Height, h = 8 cm

• Breadth, b ( or width ) = 8 cm

To find out:

Find the area of half fold paper ( triangle) ?

Formula used:

Area of triangle = ½ × b × h

Solution:

We know that,

Area of triangle = ½ × b × h

☆ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get

Area of triangle = ½ × 8 × 8

= 4 × 8

= 32 cm²

Hence the area of given triangle is 32 cm².
