Question

what is the area of the triangle below? 3 meters 4 meters a 12 m b 12 square m c 6 square m d 6 m

Explanation:

Step1: Recall area formula

The area formula for a triangle is $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$, where $b$ is the base and $h$ is the height.

Step2: Identify base and height

Here, the base $b = 4$ meters and the height $h=3$ meters.

Step3: Calculate the area

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times4\times3=\frac{12}{2}=6$ square - meters.

Answer:

C. 6 square m
