using 1/2*b*h gives 21 beyond which i can't see there is a possibility so can you guess now?

What if we don't have a right triangle.

yeah... slightly confused

ghazi · Answer

well info has to be mentioned in the question...well still if it is not a right triangle ...area won't go beyond 21..you can draw perpendicular bisector and area will come almost 21
