Question

Calculate the area of the following triangle:

00:00 Calculate the area of the triangle

00:02 Apply the formula for calculating the area of a triangle

00:05 (base(BC) x height (AE)) divided by 2

00:10 Substitute in the relevant values and proceed to solve

00:23 This is the solution

The formula for the area of a triangle is

$A = \frac{h\cdot base}{2}$

Let's insert the available data into the formula:

(7*6)/2 =

42/2 =
