What is the area of the triangle shown below

Given:

The triangle is a right angle triangle

Height of triangle = 3 m

Hypotenuse of triangle = 5 m

To find:

Area of triangle

Steps:

To find the area of a triangle we have multiply the base and height of triangle into 1/2, but the figure doesn't show the measurements of the base, so we have to use Pythagoras theorem to find the third side this triangle is a right angle triangle.

A² + B² = C²

3² + B² = 5²

9 + B² = 25

      B² = 25 - 9

       B² = 16

         B = √16 = 4 m

Therefore the base length of the triangle is 4 m

Now we can find the area of the triangle

Area of triangle = (Base × Height)1/2

Area of triangle = (4 × 3)1/2

Area of triangle = 12 × 1/2

Area of triangle = 6 m²

Therefore the area of the triangle is B) 6 meters square

Happy to help :)

If you have any doubts, pls ask

the answer would be 484

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply 0.484 times 1,000 (formula)
