Answer 1

The area of the triangle will be 4.2 square meters.

What is the triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

The height is 2.4 meters and the base is 3.5 meters.

Then the area of the triangle will be

Area = 1/2 x b x h

Then we have

Area = 1/2 x 3.5 x 2.4

Area = 4.2 square meters
