Question

11 multiple choice 1 point the height of a triangle is six times the base. write an expression for the area of the triangle and let x be the base. 3x 3x² 6x² x(x + 6)

Explanation:

Step1: Define base and height

Let base $b = x$. Height $h = 6x$ (since height is 6×base).

Step2: Use triangle area formula

Area formula: $A = \frac{1}{2}bh$
Substitute values: $A = \frac{1}{2} \times x \times 6x$

Step3: Simplify the expression

$A = \frac{6x^2}{2} = 3x^2$

Answer:

B. $3x^2$
