Questions

How do you find the area of a triangle?

The area of a triangle is one-half the base times the height: A = ½ × base × height. For example, a triangle with a base of 8 and a height of 6 has an area of ½ × 8 × 6 = 24 square units.

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

A = ½ × b × h, where b is the base and h is the perpendicular height (straight up from the base).
