Question

what is the formula for finding the area of a triangle? $a = (\frac{b_1 + b_2}{2})h$ $a = \frac{1}{2}bh$ $a = 2bh$ $a = bh$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a triangle

The area of a triangle is calculated by multiplying the base \(b\) and the height \(h\) and then taking half of that product.

Step2: Write the formula

The formula is \(A=\frac{1}{2}bh\).

Answer:

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