because… a triangle is basically 1/2 a rectangle… the equation for the area of a reclation is b*h ….. 1/2 of that is a triangle.

Answer 11

o ok i get it

Answer 12

okay:) good!

Answer 13

its okay @MLGgamer

Answer 14

The area formula for a triangle is \[ \frac{ b \times h }{ 2 }\]The b would stand for base and the h for height. So all you have to do is plug the correct numbers in and solve.

Answer 15

Nevermind, I see you get it :)

Answer 16
