Question 544783: The area A of a triangle with base b and height h is given by A=1/2bh. Find the area when b =28m and h = 20m.
Answer by rapaljer(4671)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A=1/2bh
A=1/2(28*20)
A=1/2(560)
A=280 square meters
For a NON-traditional explanation of this and other topics in math, please see my own website. Click on my tutor name anywhere in algebra.com. This takes you to the homepage of my website. Near the bottom of my homepage, look for "Topics from Geomety." See the link called "Perimeters, Areas, and Volumes."
Since most of my career was spent teaching math IN COLOR, this became a major theme in my teaching career. In case you forget my name or can't remember how to spell it, an easy way to find my website is to go to the link www.mathinlivingcolor.com.
