Answer 1

Solution

1. We want to find the Area of the triangle

Note: Formula to use

$\begin{gathered} Area=\frac{1}{2}bh \\ b=base \\ h=height \end{gathered}$

From the question

$\begin{gathered} b=8.5in \\ h=14in \end{gathered}$

Substituting we get

$\begin{gathered} Area=\frac{1}{2}bh \\ \\ Area=\frac{1}{2}(8.5)(14) \\ \\ Area=59.5in^2 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the area is

$\begin{equation*} 59.5in^2 \end{equation*}$
