is this an understandable picture, or should I draw a better one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes its understandable

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Ok, good..... can you tell me the area of your triangle (with height 14, and base 6) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is either 42 units or 42 units squared

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Yes, and when we calculate area we square our units (because it is two dimensional)
