I want to say A. :/
OpenStudy (hybrik):
@Flvs.net explain more, the formula of a triangle is A = 1/2 BH
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
A = 504
OpenStudy (hybrik):
Do 72*18 then divide that by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea
OpenStudy (hybrik):
Which is 648
OpenStudy (hybrik):
A = 648 units squared
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
That's not the answer

Because if you have this when you start out
(one sec.)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
k
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
\[A = \frac{ h _{b}b }{ 2 }\]
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
if you start out with that
OpenStudy (flvs.net):

OpenStudy (hybrik):
the real formula is 1/2 BH to find the area of the triangle
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
For the base I put in 56
OpenStudy (hybrik):
That is incorrect, that is the hypothenuse
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
and the Height \[(h _{b})\]
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
18

Whatever, i'm freakin stupid
OpenStudy (flvs.net):
Sorry @speartonion
Mehek (mehek14):
\(\dfrac{1}{2}*72*18\)
@Flvs.net no you're not
everyone makes mistakes
just learn from them
72 * 18 = 1926
\(\dfrac{1926}{2}=648\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
