Question

what is the area of the obtuse triangle given below? 7 14 a. 21 sq. units b. 49 sq. units c. 98 sq. units d. 28 sq. units

Explanation:

Step1: Recall triangle area formula

Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$

Step2: Substitute given values

Base = 14, Height = 7
Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times 14 \times 7$

Step3: Calculate the result

Area = $7 \times 7 = 49$

Answer:

B. 49 sq. units
