Question

What is the Area of the Triangle
Height 10 cm
right side 11 cm
bottom 5 cm
_____ square centimeters

Answer 1

To find the area of a triangle, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

From the information provided, it appears that the base is 5 cm and the height is 10 cm. Using these values in the formula:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 5 \, \text{cm} \times 10 \, \text{cm}
\]

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 50 \, \text{cm}^2 = 25 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Thus, the area of the triangle is \( 25 \, \text{square centimeters} \).
