Answer:

1080 m^2 Don't submit m^2 in your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The catch is to find h

To do that, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a b and c are in the same 1/2 triangle.

a = 48/2 = 24 m

b = h = ?

c = 51 meters

Solution

a^2 + b^2 = 51^2                      Substitute for b^2 = h^2

24^2 + h^2 = 51^2                   Expand 24^2 and 51^2

576 + h^2 = 2601                    Subtract 576 from both sides

h^2 = 2601 - 576

h^2 = 2025                              Take the square root of both sides

h = 45

Area

Area = 1/2 b * h

Area = 1/2 48 * 45

Area = 1080

Remark

Notice that to find h you only use 1/2 of 48 because that is the base of the right triangle.

To find the area, you need to use all of 48 because 48 is the full length of the base.
