Question 986478: A rectangle flag is 24ft long and 18ft wide. If a triangle is cut out of the center of the flag that has a base of 7ft and a height of 14 ft what is the remaining area of the flag Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The flag is a rectangle, so the area of the flag is the length times the width. The area of the cutout triangle is one-half the base times the height. Subtract the area of the cutout from the area of the rectangle.
