Question

to find the area of a triangle is it b x h or b+h

Answer 1

Neither.

A = (1/2) b * h

Answer 2

i know about the 1/2 but its multiplication thx

Answer 3

I used the * to indicate multiplication. I know we're not doing Algebra now but when you do, the variable x will turn up frequently. If x is used to mean multiply and x represents a variable and if they are both in the same problem, confusion reigns. So, I rarely use "x" to indicate multiplication.

Answer 4

area of a triangle is (1/2) x b x h --> how about this?

Answer 5

i understood the first time ... but il give u the good answer for explaining
