Answer 1

Do you know the formula for the area of a triangle?

Answer 2

no i dont understand any of this? :|

Answer 3

The area of a triangle is found using this formula:

\(\large A = \dfrac{bh}{2} \)

where A = area,
b = length of base, and
h = height

Answer 4

The formula shows that to find the area of a triangle, you multiply the base by the height and divide by 2.
Ok so far?

Answer 5

Any side of the triangle can be considered a base.
Once you choose a side to be the base, then the height is the perpendicular distance from that side (or the line that contains the side) to the opposite vertex.

Answer 6

Start with this triangle and choose the side labeled base as the base.

Answer 7

Then the height is the segment labeled height below. Notice the height is perpendicular to the base and goes to the opposite vertex of the triangle.
