Area of a triangle
The area of a triangle is found by multiplying \(\frac{1}{2}\) by the base by the height.
Example 1
\(Area = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height\)
\(Area = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 6\)
\(Area = 30c{m^2}\)
Question
Work out the area of this triangle using \(Area = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height\)
\(Area = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height\)
\(Area = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 14\)
\(Area = 84c{m^2}\)
