Answer:
It increases it by 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Base = 4m
Height = 5m
Area of triangle = ½*base*height
Area of triangle = ½*4*5
Area of triangle = 2 * 5
Area of triangle = 10 m²
Multiplying the parameters by 3, we have;
Base = 4 * 3 = 12m
Height = 5 * 3 = 15m
To find the area of triangle;
Area of triangle = ½*base*height
Area of triangle = ½*12*15
Area of triangle = 6 * 15
Area of triangle = 90 m²
Therefore, multiplying the dimensions by a factor of 3 increases the area by 9.
