Question

1. find the area of the triangle.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a triangle

The formula for the area of a triangle is \(A=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height\).

Step2: Identify the base and height

Here, the base \(b = 22\) in and the height \(h=16\) in.

Step3: Substitute the values into the formula

\(A=\frac{1}{2}\times22\times16\). First, calculate \(22\times16 = 352\). Then, \(\frac{1}{2}\times352=176\).

Answer:

\(176\) square inches
