Question

Find the area of the shaded part of the triangle below. Round to the nearest tenth if needed.

Answer 1

Answer:

212.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For triangles, A = (bh)/2

You can do 15+25 to find the base, which is 40. From here do 17*40/2. You get 340. However, you need to remove the right triangle on the left side.

Again do 17*15/2, which you get 127.5.

From here subtract 127.5 from 340 and get 212.5
