Question

Granny needs to paint a Loge made using two right triangles the dimensions Of the loge are shown below what is the difference between the area of the large triangle in the area of a small triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

The difference is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Large triangle

$Base = 5cm; Height=9cm$

Small triangle

$Base = 2cm; Height=6cm$

See attachment for logo

Required

The difference in their areas

Area is calculated as:

$Area = 0.5 * base * height$

For the large triangle

$Area = 0.5 * 5cm * 9cm$

$Area = 22.5cm^2$

For the small triangle

$Area = 0.5 * 2cm * 6cm$

$Area = 6cm^2$

The difference (d) is calculated as:

$d = 22.5cm^2 - 6cm^2$

$d = 16.5cm^2$
