all you have to do is plug in the values into the right formula

first you want to find the area of the triangle. we know that one side is 4km now we need to find the other side. so we need to subtract 12 -8=n do you understand that part?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

area of the rectangle is 32 then to find the area of the triagnle you would subtract 12 from 8 to get 4 as the base of the triangle then b*h is 16 then add 16+32

using 12 and 8:|dw:1412620474105:dw|
Triangle area=1/2 times base times height
in this case base=4 and height=4
