Question

What is the area of the triangle?

Right triangle with base labelled twenty-four centimeters height labeled 7 centimeters and third side labeled twenty-five centimeters.

Answer 1

\[A = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }bh\] So your area is equal to half of the height times base. So the base is 24 and the height is 7. 24 * 7 = 168 *1/2 (also equal to .5 or 2) is 84. So the area is 84 cm^2

Answer 2

So 7.24*7+168*1/2 is 84
So that's how you do it

Answer 3

I also have another question,

The rear window of each side of a car is in the shape of a triangle. If that piece of glass has area twenty-four square inches and height 8 inches, what is the base of that triangular glass?

Answer 4

Not exactly. \[(7 \times 24) \div 2\] is what I did for the triangle

Answer 5

Would it be 24/8=3 so the base of the triangular glass is 3

Answer 6

Hmm hang on

Answer 7

What is the area of the parallelogram?

Answer 8

I believe b = 6 actually

Answer 9

\[A = \frac{ 1 }{ 2}bh\]\[24 = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }8b\]\[24\times2 = 8b \]I got rid of the 1/2 by multiplying both sides by 2. So 48 = 8b, divide by 8, b = 6
