Question 318338: Find the total cost of tiling a triangle area having a base length of 3 meters and a height of 8 meters if it costs $3.88 to tile one suare meter. Round to the nearest cent. Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A = 1/2 times base times height
Let A = area of triangle
A = 1/2 times 3 times 8
A = 1/2 times 24
A = 12 square meters
Then 12 times 3.88 = 46.56, which can be rounded to simply $47.
