Question
find the area of the shaded region of the triangle giver the appropriate result provided below.
traingle 36
image of a triangle with height 7 mi and base segment 8 mi
image of a right triangle with legs 8 yd and 9 yd
Step1: Calculate area of first triangle
Area formula: $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$
$\frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 7 = 28$ square miles
Step2: Calculate area of second triangle
Area formula: $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$
$\frac{1}{2} \times 9 \times 8 = 36$ square yards
Step3: Match to given value
36 matches the provided result, so the second triangle is the correct one.
