Answer: The answer is A 17in2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question it states that the triangles are congruent (both the same).
first I found the area of the top orange triangle.
the formula to find the area of a triangle is (base times Height).
so I did which gave me 8.27.
Since the triangles are congruent (the same) they would both have the same area along with base and height. so I multiplied 8.27 by 2 (because there are two triangles) and got 16.54 which rounds up to 17.
the question also stated to find the APPROXIMATE area (close to the actual, but not completely accurate or exact.)
