You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The area of a triangle can be found a couple of ways. The most common way is:
highlight%28A=%281%2F2%29bh%29, A means area, b means base, h, means height. When finding the area of anything, don't forget to square your units of measurement.
If you need to do this using Heron's Formula (Not used until Trig usually.) let me know.
Happy Calculating!!!!
