Find the area of the triangle.

Please explain how to do it as well. Thank you!

12 x 8 / 2 = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle the formula is base times height divided by 2. In this case, count the squares on the bottom of the triangle which is 12. Then count the squares that are going vertical which are 8. So 12 x 8 = 96. Then you need to divide by 2 since 96 is the area of the square and the triangle's area is exactly half of that. And so 96/2 = 48 which is your answer.

If you have more questions reach out to me!

48

Step-by-step explanation:

so, the triangles are congruent. You can simply flip one of the triangles upside down, and it will slide in with the other. you now have a rectangle. If you don't get this part ^ ask me in the comments.

so you can do the classic area formula

6x8
