For each triangle, identify a base and a corresponding height. Use them to find the area. Show your reasoning.

A. the identified base and corresponding height in figure A are 3 in. and 6 in. respectively.
The area is 9 sq. in.
B. the identified base and corresponding height in figure B are 6 cm and 4 cm in. respectively.
The area is 12 sq. cm
Recall:
The formula for area is given as: A = 1/2(base)(height)
The base of a triangle will be perpendicular to its height.
A. In the figure given in A, here, the dimensions are:
height = 6 inches
base = 3 inches
Area = 1/2(base)(height)
Area = 1/2(3)(6)
Area = 9 sq. in.
B. In the figure given in B, here, the dimensions are:
height = 4 cm
base = 6 cm
Area = 1/2(base)(height)
Area = 1/2(6)(4)
Area = 12 sq. cm
In summary,
A. the identified base and corresponding height in figure A are 3 in. and 6 in. respectively.
The area is 9 sq. in.
B. the identified base and corresponding height in figure B are 6 cm and 4 cm in. respectively.
The area is 12 sq. cm
