Question

jazlyn wants to purchase a triangular trampoline.
$a = \frac { 1 } { 2 } b h$
what are the actual base and height of
the trampoline?
actual base $= 10$ ft
actual height $= 12$ ft
what is the actual area of the trampoline?
$\square f t ^ { 2 }$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute values into formula

Given \(A=\frac{1}{2}bh\), \(b = 10\) ft, \(h=12\) ft.
\(A=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times12\)

Step2: Perform multiplication

First, \(\frac{1}{2}\times10 = 5\). Then \(5\times12=60\).

Answer:

\(60\)
