Please help me I've been stuck on this for a bit

A=1.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

a²+b²=c²

2.5²+1.5²=c²

a²+2.25=6.25

a²=4.00

a=2

A=1/2 x b x h

A=1/2 x 1.5 x 2

A=1.5 units²

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem.  a^2+b^2=c^2.  a and b are the legs, or the shorter sides of the triangle.  If you don't know which ones are shorter, just know that c is opposite of the right angle which is 2.5 in this case.  So c is 2.5 and a is 1.5.  Now you plug the values into the equation

1.5^2+b^2=2.5^2

2.25+b^2= 6.25 .Simplify the equation

b^2= 4 .Subtract 2.25 from both sides.

b= 2.  Square root both sides.  

Based on the picture, a is the base and b is the height.  The area of a triangle is 1/2(bh) .You already know the base and height you you plug it in again

1/2(1.5*2)= 1/2(3)= 1.5  

dude thats to long figure it
