Answer:
The area is 28 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to use the Pyhtagorean Theorem for this one, to find the height.
3^2 + h^2 = 5^2
9 + h^2 = 25
h^2 = 25 - 9
h^2 = 16
h = 4
The Pythagorean Theorem is basically A squared + B squared is C squared, With C always being the hypotenuse, or longest side. A and B are the base and height. You can use either A or B for either base or height, but you must use C for the hypotenuse.
