Question

follow the steps to find the area of the shaded region.
now, use the formula below to calculate the area of the triangle.
triangle area = \frac{1}{2}bh
h = 10.0708 cm
triangle area = ? cm²
round to four decimal places.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute the values into the formula

Given \( b = 14\) cm and \( h=10.0708\) cm. The formula for the area of a triangle is \(A=\frac{1}{2}bh\).
Substitute \(b = 14\) and \(h = 10.0708\) into the formula: \(A=\frac{1}{2}\times14\times10.0708\).

Step2: Calculate the product

First, calculate \(14\times10.0708 = 140.9912\). Then, \(\frac{1}{2}\times140.9912\).
Since \(\frac{1}{2}\times140.9912=70.4956\).

Answer:

\(70.4956\)
