Question

Find the area of the right triangle

Answer 1

Answer: A = 24 unit²

Concept:

The area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a two-dimensional region, shape, or planar lamina, in the plane.

Area (triangle) = bh/2

b = base

h = height

Solve:

Given information

1 unit = 1 grid

b = 6 grids = 6 × 1 = 6 units

h = 8 grids = 8 × 1 = 8 units

Given expression

A = bh / 2

Substitute values into the expression

A = (6) (8) / 2

A = 48 / 2

A = 24 units²

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer 2

Answer:

Area: 24 sq units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle formula:

A = 0.5bh

Given:

b = 6

h = 8

Work:

A = 0.5bh

A = 0.5(6)(8)

A = 3(8)

A = 24
