Question

jazlyn wants to purchase a triangular trampoline.
what is the formula for finding the area of
a triangle?
$a = \frac { 1 } { 2 } b h$
$a = 2 b h$
$a = b h$
$a = \frac { ( b _ { 1 } + b _ { 2 } ) } { 2 } h$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a triangle

The area of a triangle is calculated by taking half of the product of its base \(b\) and height \(h\).
The formula is \(A=\frac{1}{2}bh\).

Answer:

\(A = \frac{1}{2}bh\)
